Gopher Control in Southern Utah
If your yard is suddenly covered in small holes, dirt mounds, and brown patches, you might have a gopher problem. These yard pests are destructive and difficult to catch, giving them plenty of time to undo all your careful yard work. At Western Pest Control, we offer Utah gopher control that's guaranteed to stop these nuisances in their tracks.
About Our Gopher Removal Services
Gophers may seem unassuming, but they actually wreak havoc on your yard by destroying your grass, flower beds, vegetable gardens, and any other plants. They can also damage sprinkler systems and utility lines, leaving you with an expensive repair bill. Their tunnels can reach six feet deep, making it impossible to effectively treat gophers on your own. That’s where we come in! Our gopher control experts are here to safely and efficiently eliminate gophers from your property by creating a treatment plan unique to you, saving your yard from further damage.
Do I have Gophers in My Yard?
Gophers spend most of their time in underground tunnels, so it’s unlikely you’ll actually spot one in your yard. Unlike moles, gophers don’t leave behind ridges or raised tunnels, so the best way to tell if you have gophers is to look for fan-shaped mounds of dirt that are created as they push dirt out of their tunnels.
Another indication of a gopher problem is damaged vegetation, especially damage that is sudden and unexplained. Gophers typically feed on within their tunnels, either by eating plants from the roots up or pulling them down underground, causing vegetation to seemingly vanish.
What Attracts Gophers to My Yard?
To put it simply, gophers are attracted to nice-looking yards. When your yard looks nice, that means there’s plenty of healthy vegetation for these herbivores to eat, making them more likely to stick around. Other factors that attract gophers include:
- Moist soil with a high concentration of clay allows gophers to construct their tunnels without them caving in.
- Plants such as grass, dandelions, carrots, potatoes, radishes, tulips, and any accessible roots.
- Your geographical location, as gophers live primarily in the midwest and western states.
