Gopher Exterminator

A gopher exterminator clears out an active infestation completely and fast, without leaving half the tunnel system still working underground. You've got activity happening right now, fresh mounds, a chewed-up sprinkler line, a lawn getting torn up in real time, and you need it handled, not managed over months. That's exterminator work. We map every active tunnel on the property and clear it out in one focused push. Gopher extermination sits inside our full gopher pest control lineup.
What "Gopher Exterminator" Actually Means
Exterminator work is about speed and completeness, not maintenance. When gophers have already taken over a yard, mounds everywhere, sprinkler lines hit, plants dying from the roots up, you don't need a slow rollout. You need every active tunnel found and cleared in one focused visit.
That's the real difference between this and ongoing control: control manages a yard over time, exterminator work ends an infestation that's already underway.
How Our Gopher Exterminator Process Works
Three steps. One visit. Most yards cleared in 2 days.
Map the Infestation
We walk the whole yard and mark every active tunnel and mound, not just the one you noticed.
Clear It in One Push
Traps go into every active tunnel at the same time, poison-free, so the whole system gets hit at once instead of one gopher at a time.
Confirm It's Done
Most gophers are cleared in 2 days. Once the job's done, you have peace of mind knowing that if any new gophers show up, they're handled quickly under the 60-day service warranty.
Signs You Need an Exterminator, Not Just a Single Trap
One mound is a watch-and-wait situation. Multiple mounds at once usually isn't.
Act now if any of this is happening
- Multiple mounds appeared within the same week
- A sprinkler line or drip system just got hit
- Plants or trees are dying from the roots up rather than just wilting
- Fresh tunneling is running beneath a driveway, walkway, patio, or artificial turf
- Activity is following pool plumbing or buried lighting and sprinkler-control wires
- You can see or hear digging activity in more than one spot
If your yard matches more than one of those, waiting usually means more damage, not less. That's exterminator territory.
