Non-Toxic Methods For Farmers

Gophers Limited has had much success training farmers and farmworkers on how to control gopher, mole, vole and ground squirrel problems without the use of poisons.  A typical training session will consist of and early morning (if possible) trap setting session, a Power Point lecture on basic problem animal biology focusing on behaviors and mannerisms that lead to effective trapping or control.  The lecture will also include attracting predators, using sprays and drenches, different fencing and barrier options, various organically approved pyrotechnic processes and several trapping methods.  After the lecture, the group returns to the trapping site set up earlier and traps are checked, reset and new areas are set to demonstrate effective trapping techniques.
