I live in Phoenix. Not much rain but gopher holes around the perimeter of my back yard.
Evidently a very healthy gopher. I need Bill Murray.
I did try a product called 'Gopher Scram' and everywhere I put it he did scram but problem is he scrammed to a different place in the yard. I read you have to keep reapplying the 'scram' every 30 days in areas that rain maybe? But it worked from the get go and I could just go and do that again.
Considering more Gopher Scram because it did work but anyone have any input on these sonic products? Some say yes, others say no.
Plus I do have a cat and a dog and don't want anything that would harm them.

C4? (Hat tip to a certain movie)
Get a maine coon cat.
I know a guy named Carl Spackler that works at a golf course...
It will be messy. But it will also be through.
I’ve got one too. Burrowed a huge hole right on my house’s foundation. I’m gonna kill the scumbag.
Tomcat Mole Killer worked ok for me but I eventually hired a lawn care company and they got rid of all of them.
A Pellet Gun with Whisper in the name or a Jack Russel Doggie are the traditional ways. Life with a JR Doggie is insanity. Shoot out a window from a dark room with the TV on and the neighbors will never know, get your American sniper on, with some dip and an outfit with velcro.
You have to kill them. That’s smoke them out and shoot them with a good pellet gun or .22.
They are like the Viet Cong....Varmint Cong!

Careful. Sounds like you’re edging into Bill Murray territory .
I just use the old claw type traps. They catch them, and there is little danger of anything else getting in those traps. https://www.amazon.com/Victor-Easy-Gopher-Trap-Twin-Pack/dp/B000VYD0MA/ref=sr_1_6?adgrpid=187937467842&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.DU3nLU8yaWcGDhFw5xs77T1E12Ne37Lc_vk-hHQcDC9bhqwZAUEFRJyyUy2BJFcoVRWbfn3uqOb17OBYlHkSFUm3050nzGLQ4048BfxpIpdyHH2_xLOsxICCfYgiI_0053tSUf0YG9iz2L2nCM81K2ie9SNLnDdE6L0bJh4MS-WOpLxGjQ4YVe2GQKUP4LgdxpwJ7jRV4dQLBrkXc3cfEYsSruFqGqAIt8vKiHGkyagE3O6wbPazo1J59EufL4FLcEqTJO4JzJYwYyXTjU_Pc8vcx214SmA7KZ2CqF-qy34.qmbWMt0GXMBse3DAgNaaWmFqQod57SgomL0YMYu58H4&dib_tag=se&hvadid=779542906699&hvdev=c&hvexpln=0&hvlocphy=1026250&hvnetw=s&hvocijid=8717308532425190701—&hvqmt=e&hvrand=8717308532425190701&hvtargid=kwd-298451733827&hydadcr=323_1015322422_2326104&keywords=gopher%2Btraps&mcid=1535c139be563b0eb87f9b2a0c549d71&qid=1772729633&sr=8-6&th=1
My dog fixed the problem for us with backup from the cat
He played with um the cat ate um
Bleach and ammonia down the holes makes poison gas.
Don’t breath it.
You can try placing Dry Ice at the entrenches which will fill the borrow with CO2 and suffocate them.
I use Gopherhawk traps. You can buy them on Amazon. They work great.
