:I am surprised no one recommended a well fed aggressive cat. We have used one with great success. Well fed gives the cat the patience it needs to hunt well enough to wait for these small animals to leave thier holes. We dont have gophers here in Vermont so I dont know how effective a cat would be with them. good luck. :wrap pieces of Wrigley's chewing gum around pieces of chocolate ex-lax and push into mole holes. You cannot get human scent on these little bombs, so use surgical gloves. I don't even want to know how it works, but old-timers down here in FL swear by this. The gophers? Borrow someone's hunting dog. Good Luck! BettyO : How do I get rid of gophers/moles in my lawn? Are there any non-toxic easy methods? If I go the poison route, what's the recommended one?
SILVIA: Traps are the most affective. Contact Gempler's, a mail order house, they have a good mole trap, it really works. MVG Plant Dr.
