Monterey Go-DIE Gopher Bait

Why did you pick this product vs others?:On my second bottle since it worked so well.Effectiveness:Usually kills ground squirrels and gophers with one dose. Excellent product with strychnine as active ingredient.Ease of use:Just put in holes or runways. Never need to come in contact with it.

I am so excited that this bait did the trick. I had pocket gophers destroying one of my garden beds, digging underneath and eating the roots of the plants from below, then emerging on the surface at night to eat the plants from the top, completely destroyed my plants. I tried other methods like smoke bombs and traps not wanting to use poison. But after the bed was completely decimated, I finally broke down and purchased these Go Die bait pellets. I also purchased the Yard Butler Gopher Bait Applicator (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EOMCJE0/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1) to make sure I do the job right.Using the applicator, I was able to poke around the mounds until I found the den. It was over 2 feet down and huge! I made sure I dispense plenty of this bait. Then I dug open several of the surface tunnels. If the gophers are alive, they will usually repair the damage the very next day. Well, it's been a week they are as I left them. There is no more gopher activity. I have even replanted the bed... and so far, so good. Additionally, I feel good about delivering the poisonous bait so deep in the ground that the bait pellets themselves and the dead poisoned gophers cannot be accidentally be eaten by other animals, or come to the surface when I put plants down.I have to say that this bait in combination with the applicator was SUPERBLY effective. Sure it's over $20 for a pound of this bait. But I literally only used 2 tablespoons. I'll have bait for years in case a new family of gophers decides to take up residence in my beds again. Looking back, I should have done this sooner. I might have been able to save some of the garden before it was destroyed.TLDR: I highly recommend this bait and also that you get the applicator while you're at it. Sometimes you need to just spend some money to make sure you're getting effective tools for the job at hand! Go Die, gophers. Go Die!

Works perfectly.

It chases them away from our house area.

This stuff doesn’t work

Not sure - it seems to work sometimes - however, gopher would die underground

This is great stuff to whack the gopher pests. Get two old aluminum ski poles and use one for a probe. You will feel the gopher’s tunnel as a little void. Cut the other pole to make a tube and tape a small funnel on the top. Find the void around the mound drop in some seeds and rake over the dirt. Simple gopher gone.

Works very well, be careful that the carcass of the creature you are killing does not end up exposed to the elements where scavengers will find it. it will killl them as wwell
