Gopher Mound
The typical method for gopher trapping Corona, CA home and commercial gopher removal is a combination of trapping and gas injection. At Rodent Guys we do not use the usual poisonous bait which is strychnine or gopher bait similar to that of rat poisonous bait. We have concluded their effectiveness is limited and the danger to your pets and other wildlife including predatory birds is high.
This is why Rodent Guys gopher trapping Corona begins by setting traps inside the gopher tunnels nearby the most recent gopher activity on your Corona yard. These traps are inserted down into the gopher’s tunnel using irrigation flags showing their locations. Rodent Guys typically will let the traps sit for one to seven days varying on schedule, weather and the technician’s recommendation.
When we arrive to pick-up the traps all of the dead gophers will be removed out of the tunnels which is the first phase of our gopher trapping Corona. After the trapping we will use our carbon monoxide machines to place carbon monoxide gas into the gopher burrow eliminating any other gophers in the tunnel including any babies in the burrow. With 2 differnt control techniques such as these gives great gopher control allowing us to offer the longest guarantee.
Why not not use gopher poison]?
While many poisons are available for controlling gophers in Corona, Ca but few of them have good control. This includes the commercial strength of gopher bait available to us, a licensed pest control company, having limited efficiency. Strychnine is known to be mearly 50-60% effective as a standalone method of gopher control. Our experience with these poisons is a bit better than that but still not up to our standards.
Besides gopher bait not having good control for gopher extermination it is also extremely lethal to dogs, cats and wildlife as well as children. At times gophers will eject poison from their tunnels if they do not intend to consume it (this happens commonly). When the gopher bait is pushed above ground it is now in reach for anyone (child, pet, other wildlife) to eat the lethal poison on your Corona home. Poisons such as strychnine have no antidote and kill in roughly thirty minutes.
Another way for exposure to the poison is if a dog digs into the tunnel going after the gopher and consumes the lethal bait. Don’t let pest control companies fool you, the main tunnels are not several feet below the surface in Corona. The tunnels on your property are 2-8″ below and easy to excavate since the tunneling removed quite a bit of the dirt previously.
The other common way for your pet or wildlife to get poisoned by gopher bait is by eating a dead or dying gopher that consumed the poison. The lethal bait is still in the gopher’s stomach and when your pet eats the gopher it is also eating the gopher bait. If you own dogs it is highly recommended to not use gopher poiosn and don’t allow pest control companies serving Corona tell you it is safe – it is not.

What is the purpose of carbon monoxide?
Rodent Guys knows customers want their gopher infestation solved quickly. When we follow our trapping up with a carbon monoxide method we have now used a totally separate method utilizing a different technology to help ensure the highest chances of full gopher extermination in Corona.
The carbon monoxide floods the gopher burrow system with an unlivable environment which only requires them to breath as a method of control. The entire system which is connected by tunneling is filled with this lethal gas in around thirty seconds and will eliminate gophers within the tunnels including offspring in the nest. Once the machines are turned off the gas quickly dissipates from the gopher tunnels. Above ground people and pets are unaffected by the gasses down in the tunnel. Our machines are registered and approved by EPA and State of California regulations for everyone’s safety for use in Corona, Ca.
