I have a terrible pocket gopher problem. They absolutely have to be dealt with when they come out of hibernation this year. What's you're favorite trap for them?



I've got some long black traps with a "flag" on them that pops when triggered, and those seem to work well enough. A chunk of rebar to poke around and find the tunnel, a bit of hand digging, and I can start pulling 'em out in a hurry.


After years of trouble, my wife finally found success with a GopherHawk.


That does indeed look very effective.
