Gopher Control
Gophers are underground pests that leave behind crescent shaped piles of dirt and eat plants from the root up.
Mole Control
Similar to gophers, moles are burrowing animals that will leave behind pushed up mounds of dirt. However, they are carnivorous so they will not go after your plants and their mounds are more of a centered hill of dirt.
Vole Control
Voles are small meadow mice that often take over old gopher/mole tunnels, they are herbivores so plant loss is a common sign of these pests. They leave behind small open holes and little trails in grassy areas.

FAQs
What are the most common signs of gopher activity in St. Helena Yards?
The easiest way to tell if you have gopher activity is to check around for mounds of dirt and either declining or lost plants. Since gophers make underground tunnel systems you’ll see the dirt that they push out onto the surface. It usually will be somewhat spread out to one side and finer in texture. Since they eat plants from the roots up you will see plants showing signs of distress or some can even be fully pulled underground!
Can gopher and mole damage return after initial treatment?
Unfortunately, yes. We can only address the critters that are currently present on the property. There is no guaranteed way to prevent them from returning. This is because they are native to the area so this means we built our homes in their habitats. As long as you have a desirable food source (aka your landscape) there is potential for new critters to come in.
Do you offer ongoing gopher control programs in St. Helena?
Yes, we do! As mentioned above since you can’t truly prevent these critters from coming onto your property we do offer an ongoing program that covers gophers, moles, and voles. It entails us coming out unprompted about every 6 weeks to check the property. It also includes unlimited service calls so if you see new activity in between our visits you just let us know and we’ll be out within 2 business days!
