When Gophers Start Affecting Your Landscaping
Gophers can become a problem in maintained lawns, garden beds, and landscaped slopes. Around Woodland Hills homes, underground activity may develop near irrigation systems or planted areas where the soil is regularly watered. The damage can continue even when the animal is never seen.
Fresh Dirt Mounds Around the Yard
New piles of soil are often the first indication that a gopher is digging underground. Several mounds may appear in the same area as the gopher extends its tunnels. We examine where the newest mounds are forming to help locate the active tunnel system.
Plants Losing Their Roots
Gophers feed on roots beneath the soil, sometimes causing plants to wilt, weaken, or die. Their tunneling may also disturb irrigation lines and surrounding soil. We check for active tunnels near the damaged plants to determine whether gophers are responsible.
Finding the Right Way to Treat the Problem
Treatment begins by locating the active tunnel system rather than treating every mound across the yard. The location of the tunnels, surrounding landscaping, and access to the affected areas help determine whether trapping, carbon monoxide treatment, or both would be appropriate.
Trapping Method
We locate an active tunnel and place a specialized trap where the gopher travels underground. This allows us to focus on the affected area without digging up large portions of your landscaping. We’ll explain whether additional visits may be needed.
Carbon Monoxide Treatment
Using our Gopher RX equipment, we introduce carbon monoxide gas into the active tunnel system. This method targets gophers below ground without using poison bait. We determine whether this treatment is suitable based on the tunnel location and conditions around your property.
