Gopher Control and Defense

Gophers in Spring in Southern California

What to expect when it comes to gophers in the spring time. 

Spring is an important month when it comes to gopher control and defense. Gophers are active all year long, however gophers mate most during the spring and fall months. Menifee homeowners know about gopher problems all too well. With the abundance of gopher offspring approaching this season ensuring that your property is properly protected against a gopher problem is paramount. Having a gopher defense plan will get you a step in front of possible gopher issue.

Do you have a property that is constantly dealing with a pesky gopher? Are holes filling your beautifully maintained lawn? Or perhaps precious vegetation being carried off by gophers? Sounds like you need a professional Gopher Defense team on your side. Black Knight Termite and Pest Control has a specialized Gopher Control Service Crew. Black Knight’s Gopher Control Division is highly trained on how to eliminate gophers, and keep them from coming back. 

Spring Time and Gophers

With the warming temperatures and damp soil gophers become more active. Early spring is a good time to start prepping your lawn and garden against gophers. Local Temecula Wineries will want to insure that they have a fully staffed professional gopher team designated to their property. A single gopher can be the demise of an entire harvest. Sadly, Temecula wine growers know this all too well. Black Knight Pest Control has an Agricultural Gopher Division catering to all wineries around the county. 

Gophers spend most of their lives underground, a homeowner may not even notice that there is a gopher problem until it’s too late. While a gophers life is spent mostly beneath the soil, so does the most of the amount of their destruction. Gophers are known to weaken the integrity of the soil, but they don’t stop there. Grass is not their only food source, they will also start eating the roots of flowers and trees. Planted bulbs don’t stand a chance when going head to head with a gopher. Irrigation systems could be greatly damaged costing the property owner thousands. Diseases like rabies can be carried by gophers, bringing a gopher problem to a “hole” other level. The potential for disease makes taking care of a gopher problem on your own hazardous to your health. This is another reason why leaving a gopher problem to the professionals is crucial.
