Gopher and Mole pest control in Sacramento
Gophers, moles, and voles are very destructive nuisance pests in Sacramento, Roseville, Rancho Cordova, Rocklin, and Folsom for home and business owners. Gophers and moles are special types of rodents that dig complex tunnel systems underground in order to find food and to evade predators such as Gopher Snakes and owls. Their constant digging can cause very expensive damage to landscapes, lawns, gardens, trees, and irrigation systems (sprinklers). One single gopher has the ability to dig and make over 200 dirt plugs (mounds) per year, leading to a completely destroyed yard if not handled quickly.
