No signs of tunnels. I sprayed for grubs last year and the mole problem went away so I already sprayed again this year. Me and my neighbor have these dirt piles popping up. A few new ones each morning down close to the river.

Dadgum gophers!

I have no idea what it is but I bet a gopher trap would come in handy.

Guess maybe there is a tunnel between piles then but I can’t see it. I will put a spike trap out there tonight.

Pretty funny that I have a gopher problem at the same time I’m constructing a putting green. Will post that in the DIY thread when done.

Spike trap is for moles, you have gophers

Gopher Hawk is a good trap but they are pricey last time I looked

Yeah, spike trap ain’t gonna work. If you dig up where the dirt pile is, you’ll find the tunnels. Then set a gopher trap just inside the tunnel. Or you can just grab a lawn chair and wait. When it starts to close up the hole, pop it in the head with a 22.

Don't laugh but I read somewhere recently that an inch piece of Juicy Fruit gum will kill them. They can't digest the gum.

The last one I killed was with a Randall Raider .45 ACP, but I guess a .22 will work. Not nearly as dramatic (or traumatic) to the gopher though !

Stick a water hose in the hole, drink beer and wait with loaded shotgun.

Get the Rodent Blaster. That'll get anything and everything in that tunnel.
