Rodent Guys gopher trapping in Loma Linda 60 Day Guarantee
Rodent Guys gopher trapping Loma Linda service protects your landscape from the vast damage caused from gophers and moles. Our residential treatment for gophers utilizes no poisons and is safe for kids, pets and other animals. We use unique and safe approaches for gopher removal with the best guarantee of anyone around.
Our typical method for your Loma Linda gopher trapping residential and commercial gopher removal is dual process of traps and carbon monoxide. At Rodent Guys we do not use the normal poisonous bait which is strychnine or bait similar to that of rat poison bait. We have concluded their effectiveness is limited and the danger to your dogs, cats and children and other wildlife along with predatory birds is high.
Instead our gopher trapping starts out by setting traps inside the gopher tunnels near most recent gopher evidence on your Loma Linda home. The traps are inserted inside the gopher’s tunnel using markers displaying their positions. Rodent Guys normally will let the traps sit for 1-7 days varying on schedule, weather and the technician’s recommendation.
When we arrive to pick-up the traps the dead rodents will be removed out of the tunnels which is the first phase of our gopher trapping Loma Linda. After the trapping we will use our carbon monoxide machines to funnel carbon monoxide gas into the burrow killing any more gophers in the tunnel including any young in the burrow. Utilizing two seperate methods such as these offers excellent gopher control allowing Rodent Guys to offer the longest guarantee.
Serveral poisons are sold for controlling gophers but few of them work well. Even the commercial strength of gopher bait sold to to us, a licensed pest control company, having limited efficiency. Strychnine is known to be only fifty to sixty percent effective as a standalone method of gopher control. Our experience with these poisons is slightly better than that but still not up to our standards for your Loma Linda property.
Not only does poison not get good control it is also very lethal to dogs, cats and wildlife not to mention children. Sometimes gophers will force poison out of their tunnels if they do not intend to eat it (this is common). When the bait is pushed above ground it is now exposed for anyone (child, pet, other wildlife) to consume the deadly bait. Strychnine has no antidote and kills in about 30 minutes.
Another way for exposure to the poison is if a dog digs into the burrow going after the gopher and gets into the poison. Don’t let pest control companies lie to you, the main tunnels are not several feet down in Loma Linda. The tunnels on your lawn are 2-8″ down and easy to dig since the tunneling removed quite a bit of the soil previously.
The last way for your pet or wildlife to get poisoned by gopher bait is by eating a dead or dying rodent that ate the bait. The lethal bait is still in the gopher’s stomach and when your dog eats the gopher it is also eating the gopher bait. If you have dogs it is highly recommended to not use gopher bait and don’t allow pest control companies serving Loma Linda tell you it is safe – its not.
Why use traps?
We have played with many ways for gopher eradication for our customers over the years in Loma Linda. The main reasons to use trapping as a primary method of gopher pest removal is it works very well and is pet-safe, child-safe, wildlife-safe. There is no doubt when you pull out a gopher that you have solved the problem.
What is the purpose of carbon monoxide?
We know people want their gopher infestation solved quickly in Loma Linda. When we follow our trapping up with a carbon monoxide treatment we have now used a totally separate method utilizing a different technology to help ensure the highest chances of full gopher eradication.
The carbon monoxide fills the gopher burrow system with an unbreathable environment which only needs them to breath as a method of control. The entire system which is connected by tunneling is filled with this lethal gas in around 30 seconds and will eliminate gophers within the tunnels including babies in the burrow. Once the machines are switched off the gas quickly dissipates out of the gopher tunnels. People and pets above ground are unaffected by the exhaust down in the tunnel. Our machines are registered and approved by EPA and State of California regulations for everyone’s safety and legal in Loma Linda, California.
