Gopher Control in Poway, Escondido and North County
Quick answer: Fresh fan-shaped dirt mounds, plants vanishing from the roots up and chewed sprinkler lines mean gophers. Battle Pest Control traps them in their tunnels and keeps new ones from moving in off the hillsides with monthly Gopher Patrol, starting at $89 a month for yards up to a quarter acre.
If you live in Poway, Escondido, Ramona or anywhere with a real yard, you’ve met a gopher. Or at least his work: fresh mounds, plants vanishing from the roots up, a sprinkler line chewed like a dog toy.
I trap them in their tunnels and keep monthly watch so new ones coming off the hills don’t get comfortable.
