We do not use the normal poison bait which is strychnine or gopher bait similar to rat poison bait. We have concluded their effectiveness is low and the danger to your pets and other wildlife including predatory birds is high.

The traps are positioned down into the gopher’s tunnel using markers showing their positions. Rodent Guys typically will allow the gopher traps sit for 1-7 days depending on schedule, weather and the technician’s recommendation.

The tunnels on your yard are two to eight inches down and easy to excavate since the tunneling removed a lot of the soil previously.
