I hate gophers. We have used the old metal spring traps with decent success. They were fairly mild this year, thankfully. Hopefully they stay that way.I’m changing my pic of the day. The gophers are getting bad in the HOA property surrounding my house and the neighbor and I have tried poisonous bait and some other stuff but finally had enough. I borrowed 5 gopherhawk traps from my bro and I’m out of town but in one my neighbor already got one. Woot! I hope the little bastard suffered…

I just want to get them under control and then we’ll do a castor oil barrier around the perimeter of our yards and slowly push it into the HOA property. People swear by that methodI hate gophers.

In my teens I evacuated the entire science building at UVU smoke bombing gophers right next the the HVAC inlets
Utah Air Guns has many available solutions that would be much more fun than castor oil.I just want to get them under control and then we’ll do a castor oil barrier around the perimeter of our yards and slowly push it into the HOA property. People swear by that method

Oh man that was nuts! Glad you didn’t go off the edge with it!My FB memories from 10 years ago are the day I went back up to recover my dirt bike from AF canyon. It was a long day for sure.
I had lost control on a rock face way up above forest lake, and watched the bike fall from my hands down the mountain cliff until it was out of sight. That was followed by a very long and cold walk out. Many miracles happened that night though to make it significantly less miserable than it could have been.
Made a little easier when @TurboMinivan and his neighbor (Ryan?) came to Forest lake to take the bike down from there.
