    Pocket Gopher Control

    Trapping and targeted baiting that actually clears gopher activity.

    Pocket gophers destroy lawns, eat tree roots, and chew through irrigation lines. The fan-shaped mounds are the visible part, the tunnel system underneath is enormous. We trap and bait active runs the right way, then monitor for re-invasion.

    Signs you have a problem

    • Fan-shaped soil mounds with a plug on one side
    • Sudden dead spots in grass or wilting young trees
    • Damaged drip irrigation lines

    How Hydra treats it

    Locating active tunnels (versus old, abandoned ones, the difference matters).

    Trapping in active runs is the most reliable knockdown.

    Targeted baiting in deeper systems where trapping isn't practical.

    Follow-up monitoring because gophers move into vacated territory fast.

    How it works

    • Yard inspection and quote
    • Trapping + baiting program
    • Re-treats included if new mounds appear
