About Gophers:

Gophers are small, burrowing rodents. There are several different species of gophers, including the pocket gopher, the plains pocket gopher, and the northern pocket gopher. These animals are well adapted to living underground, where they create extensive tunnel systems that they use for shelter and foraging.

Gophers are known for their burrowing abilities, which allow them to create complex underground networks of tunnels and dens. These tunnels can extend for several hundred feet and can have multiple entrances and exits. Gophers are solitary animals, and each gopher will typically have its own tunnel system.

Gophers have strong front legs and large claws that they use to dig their burrows. They also have small eyes and ears, which are located high on their head to help them detect predators while they are underground.

Gophers are herbivores, and their diet consists primarily of roots, bulbs, and other underground plant parts. They are considered pests by many farmers and gardeners because their burrowing activities can damage crops and gardens.

Despite their reputation as pests, gophers play an important role in the ecosystem. They help to aerate the soil, which can improve soil quality and promote plant growth. Gopher burrows also provide homes for other animals, such as snakes, insects, and small mammals.

Indications Of Gophers: 

• Mounds of dirt in a lawn or garden are a common indication of gopher activity.
• Gophers create tunnels underground, which may be visible as raised ridges on the surface.
• Plants may start to die or show signs of damage as gophers eat their roots.
• Gopher holes in the ground can be a tripping hazard for people and animals.

If there are concerns about gophers on a property, it is recommended to contact a pest control professional for an evaluation and to discuss options for removal or control.

What To Do If You Spot Gophers In Your Property?

• Identify gopher activity by looking for mounds of soil or holes in the ground.
• Set up traps or use gopher repellents to get rid of them.
• Install wire mesh barriers around vulnerable areas to prevent gophers from digging.
• Remove sources of food, such as plants and vegetation, to discourage gophers from staying in the area.
• Consider using natural methods like planting certain plants that repel gophers.
