I've declared war on these little guys.........actually, this war had been going on for the last four summers...........but this time I'm gonna drop the big one............when the war first started a few summers back I found a mound of dirt in the yard, so I got the hose and stuck it down the hole and turned it on........after a few minutes the hose started moving........so I knelt down to check it out and this really wet nasty lookin thing was staring back at me.........I yelled at one of the boys to bring me a shovel..........he brought me a little 24 inch long sliver of wood............so I have this tooth pick in my hand and a wet p i$$ed off gopher trying to make his escape from his new underground pool..............so I did what any mother would do with a tooth pick in her hand and a disobedient child near by..............I thunked him on the head with it............and I musta thunked him pretty hard (adrenaline is a marvelous thing) because he fell over dead.......it's gone on pretty much like that for the last few years.............hose in the ground.........raven and tooth pick ready to go to battle..........gopher gets thunked.................BUT THIS YEAR.........it's total eradication time...........when I came home from work I had the new handy dandy bait stake........load up the box with the poison bait...........jam it into the ground above the tunnel.......turn the crank and the bait is dropped in the gopher tunnel....repeat......AND IF THATS NOT ENOUGH............four yes count em four solar charged not for the inside of your house but the outside gopher/mole zappers............it's like the Riddex thing you plug in your house but you stake this in your yard..........so I have declared war...................Bill Murry's got nuthin on me.............................................raven
