Re: Gophers
Macabee Old Reliable traps are the quintessential answer. Period. They work well, and you have positive proof of kill. THEN, you must dig up all of the tunnels, or another gopher will just move in. Been there, done that for 50 years.
The last secret is that the hole where you see the mound is a side tunnel, in most cases. You must dig over about 12-18' to where the tunnel runs in two directions (the main tunnel), and put a trap in each direction. The more traps you set, and the more tunnel yu dig up, the more likely the gopher is to make a mistake and get caught.
