mole black hole in Ritter ranch
As a MASTER GARDENER for the univ of Calif cop extension for over 15 years, I am know as Dr Death. If Mr Gopher eats it only a few time, al you get is a sick, and smarter gopher. The secrete is to cave in and or backfil as much of his tunel as posible. If they have nice litle empty tunels waiting for 'um, they don't have to dig new ones. Also by caving in their tunel, you can se when you do have activity and can nip it right away. Also the fewer tunels, the harder it is for them to make babies. Except for mating, they like to live alone in their own tunels. Best traps are the ̴Black Hole̵ traps you can find at most Home Depots, etc. Always buy 'um in pairs, one for each direction of the tunel. No bait neded, but some old timerswear rubing a bit of garlic on the trap is a sure way to get um. You use that to poke around the ground feling for tunels. Best place to start is inbetwen two mounds, They seldom push soil out their main tunel, but push it out on either side of the main tunel. Set the traps via the easy instructions on the box & go have a ber. The trap is designed so yo never touch the fuz bal. You just release the trap over the trash can & the late uncle jim just fals into the trash. Use your probe and folow that tunel. Each spring i used to give a ful day, hands on clas to homeowners on gopher control for the univ of calif. Gopher damage to crops & landscape in the state of calif each year top 3 Bilion dolars. mole black hole in Ritter ranch
