Go-DIE Gopher Bait

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!

FINALLY! A product that actually killed my varmints. I wasted months and $$hundreds trying to get rid of the moles that kept destroying my lawn with tunnels everywhere. The EPIC Mole Scram repellent (castor oil) didn't work, despite spreading two 5-gallon buckets in 4 applications. It made my yard smell like a newly-paved asphalt parking lot, but did not phase the moles. I bought and deployed 5 bottles of the ProZap zinc phosphide pellets in the tunnels over an 8 week period, and they also seemed to have no effect on the moles. Finally, in desperation, I ordered one bottle of this Monterey Go-DIE Gopher Bait (strychnine) and sprinkled a little into holes in the tunnels, covering them up afterward. I know it is lethal, because I found a dead dove the next day in my back yard. Although I have no pets or children, I still was careful to cover the holes into the tunnels with dirt to prevent wildlife kills, but that dove apparently pecked a few pellets out of the dirt. Anyway, the tunnel activity is dramatically reduced after the first treatment. I applied another dose the next week, and have not seen any new mole activity since. Never did see a live mole, or smell dead ones, but I'm convinced that they're dead - this Go-DIE stuff really works!

If it was an excellent safe, no mess to clean up....... the rodent dies underground very simple to apply..... I used a ground rod found a tunnel used a funnel and put the product down no more gophers excellent product.

Application was done over three weeks Still some activit mounds Shocked this grain...that can still germinate! Now I have kill the sprouts from the bait, before it takes ahold of the lawn

Second one bought. Neither one worked at all. Either the injector doesn't work correctly or the poison is not strong enough. Save your money and time. Worthless. I now have 41 new mole hills.

Seems to have stopped all activity in my front yard (approx. 3 gophers). Be careful when using this; read the container carefully. Be sure to not leave any product on the surface of the treatment area, as birds and other animals -maybe pets- could be harmed. You will not see any dead gophers as they die under ground. Our area is plagued with gophers this year; so far, so good.

My large rural yard was being infested with striped ground squirrels. My husband would shoot them if he was home from work but I’d usually see them before and as soon as he showed up they’d disappear. I’ve tried traps and smoke bombs but nothing seemed to work. After I received this bait on Wednesday, I read the directions and promptly went out and put a teaspoon down each hole I could find, probably about 20. While mowing today (Saturday) I found 2 dead ones laying in the grass. I figured they would die in their burrow and I would never know but my husband thinks they won’t die in their home. I filled in all the holes with dirt so now I will check them every few days to see if there’s any more activity and repeat the process if necessary. UPDATE: It’s been 2 weeks and none of the holes I’ve filled in have been disturbed and I haven’t seen any new ones nor have I seen any critters streaking across my yard. Will continue to be on the lookout though. I wish I had started using this stuff years ago, would have saved myself a lot of time, money and aggravation!
