then you need to do something because they have the ability to destroy your garden. You may find them attacking your garden while left untouched your neighbor’s.

To protect your garden from these rodents you can do many things. In this article, I have shared some methods which will help you to get rid of these gophers from your garden, and will protect your favorite plants.

Use Water
Yes, you can use water to kill them. You just have to block all the holes in the garden with the help of some bricks, and then pour water in the one hole. A lot of water will be used in this process, because these gophers create long tunnels. When you will pour water in the tunnels, they will die or if they come out, then you can hit them.

Use Gas
This is also another option for which you don’t have to purchase anything. You just need a pipe and your car. Attach the one end of the hose to your car exhaust, and the other in the gopher hole. When the poisonous exhaust gas get inside the gopher tunnels, then will come out and then you will have the chance to hit them.

Traps
There are many gopher traps available on the market which you can easily purchase at a very low cost. Traps are one of the best ways to fight these rodents because they are made especially for this purpose. There are two types of traps, one type of traps kill these rodents, and while other traps catch them alive.
But, whatever trap you are using, you will need bait which you can attract these rodents. There are many seeds like sunflower seeds, peanut butter, and other similar things will work good for you.

Poison Baits
Many people are against using poison baits because they think this method leave dead bodies which we can’t found.

For this, let’s assume, you placed the poison bait in the night. And on the next day you feel the foul smell in your whole garden. Now, you’ll be looking the source or the dead body of the rodent. If the gopher is outside in the garden, then you can easily find it. But, if the rodent is inside in its tunnel, then it will be a very difficult task for you to reach him out. That’s the reason why people don’t like using poison against rodents.

Repellents
You can also use rodent repellents against them. They also work well because they don’t allow the rodents like gophers to enter in our garden. There are some repellents which produce ultrasonic sound which rodents don’t like. And that sound is inaudible to humans and pets which means we will not be irritated and it’s safe for people and pets.

Another type of repellents produces vibrations in the soil. As the gopher makes holes and tunnels in the soil in your garden, so when they will feel the vibrations, they will leave your garden for good.

A Fence
With the help of a fence, you can protect your garden from gophers which come from outside. A fence makes a protective wall around your garden. But, make sure the fence goes outward when it goes deep. This will confuse the gophers and they will not attack your precious garden.

Final Words
To protect your garden from these rodents, you can also use more than one method. Like, along with using a fence as a protective layer, you can also use repellents so that no more gophers come to your garden. I hope that you liked this article and it will be helpful for you
