Gopher Description

• Gophers are burrowing rodents and are well equipped for a digging and tunneling lifestyle
• Depending on the species, gophers are 6 to 10 inches long
• For the most part, gophers remain underground in their burrow system
• Mounds of fresh soil are the best sign of a gopher’s presence
• Typically mounds are crescent or horseshoe shaped when viewed from above
  
• Mole mounds, however, are more circular in profile and they are volcano-shaped
• The "plugged" burrow opening entrance is located at the perimeter edge of the mound's footprint.

Gopher Problems

• Gophers often feed on garden crops, ornamental plants, vines, shrubs and trees
• A single gopher can inflict considerable damage in a very short time
• Gophers also gnaw and damage plastic water lines and lawn sprinkler systems
• Their tunnels can divert and carry off irrigation water, which leads to soil erosion
• Mounds on lawns interfere with mowing equipment and ruin the aesthetics of well-kept turfgrass

See Our Test Results!

Like all ground burrowing animals, the gopher must be conditioned (trained) to know that the Yard Gard treated area is unfriendly to his senses (sense of smell and sense of taste).

This often takes time as we learned in our testing process.

• Most appear in a variety of striped, spotted, and swirled patterns—but all are a vivid black-and-white

• Skunks are opportunistic eaters and are nocturnal foragers who eat fruit, plants, insects, larvae, worms, eggs, reptiles, small mammals and even fish.
