I had a brother in law that dressed in camo and stuck a double barrel down the hole. Work for him! :thumbup:

I like Jerry Clowers version of this........

You take that Model A Ford sittin' over there and you crank it up hook a hose to the zhaust pipe and you put the other end into the hole. The them Gopher things will guff up them fumes and then the will come out a runnin'. Then you take a stick and you wackem' in their head!! Nothin' is more entertaining that hitting a bunch of sick gophers as they are trying to run off!

I got this from a friend. Makes me want to gag just thinking about mixing it. I think I just try with Mothballs for awhile.
Marvelous mix:
These gluttons don't discourage easily but this fabulous formujla has worked well for me (the author)

4 Tbsp of castor oil
4 Tbsp of dishwashing liquid *
4 Tbsp of urine
1/2 cup of warm water
2 Gal of warm water

combine the oil, dishwashing liquid and urine in 1/2 cup warm water. Pour the mixture over any prohblem areas and the gophers will gallop away!
* Do not use detergent or any product5 that contains antibacterial agents.

Used Lawn pickles (doggie do-do) one time and it did work for awhile.

The beast covers up the pipes and gages with dirt in the pumphouse and is causing the storage tank to tip. :cry:

All dishwashing liquids are antibacterial. The effectiveness has a lot to do with pH. The handgel sanitizer people use contains alcohol which isn't in dishwashing liquid.
