Answer 2

Let children run all over your back yard! When my sons were young and played outside as much as I could keep them out there, we were the only people in the neighborhood that didn't have gophers. Yards on both sides of our property had them but we never had them. We didn't get gophers until my sons got to their mid-teens and didn't use the yard to run around in as much. However, during the Spring and Autumn they often played softball/baseball in the yard which kept the gophers away from the back yard!

Answer 3

I've tried just about everything from flooding their tunnels to traps. But what worked was a combo approach. I placed poison peanuts as deeply as I could in the tunnels. That attracts them because they think it is food. Then I light a gopher sulfur bomb and smoke them out. You only need to do this a couple of times and they will die out and others avoid those tunnels. Home improvement stores sell both items.
