I am overwhelmed by gophers, what is the best way to get rid of them without killing them? I don't want to harm them, I just want them gone....please help.

Hi ! Go to the dollar store and buy a bunch of pinwheels or garden flower spinners.
Push the stick part about 6-8 inches into the ground. Do this near goods holes or where you see them the most. When the wind blows and the tops spin , it causes vibration in the ground , which burrowing animals dislike . Good luck !
By not killing them, you will only succeed in moving them to your neighbors. When they do what you did to move them on, they will move back to another area of your yard.
how do u kill them? I have them so bad but I have dogs also
If you or if you know anyone who has snakes, keep the skin when they shed and place a good long piece in each in hole. They won't be back. Tried and true! You'll be surprised at how fast they skedaddle!
