Victor 0625 The Black Box Gopher Trap

I have not used this item yet, but borrowed one just like it and it works great. Hate to have to use it at all, but it's effective.

We have an almond orchard with lots of gophers. My husband has been able to make a dent in the gopher kingdom with these traps. Much less money than gassing them.

This trap really works. What i also like is the fact its easy and safe to set and to release to the gopher after catching.

The box was easy to use and was successful after the first use where other devices failed.

This is it. If you have a gopher problem, don't waste your time with other products. Every time that I've used it, without fail, I have a dead gopher by morning. My neighbor had a gopher problem that became my problem and I tried many other products and none of them worked until "The Black Box". Seriously, buy it. You'll be glad that you did. Go Black Box 'em out of your yard!!!

Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. It depends on how smart your gophers are. Don't laugh. Sometimes it works like a charm and others the gopher back fills the hole covering up the trap. Amazing you say? Well it happens. Try putting a baby carrot in the little hole or using peanut butter. You will get better results but it is not perfect. Also try covering the trap with dirt leaving the light source coming into the hole is through the small hole at the end of the trap. Gophers are nocturnal therefore do not like light. The only downside to using this trap is that it is very large so you have to dig a bigger area to expose the gophers hole.

Went off 3 times. Caught nothing yet.

The description says model 0625 which is an older, more expensive model. The seller charges the higher price and ships the newer cheaper model (0626) which doesn't work as well. Shameful.

Don't waste your time or money. The gophers simply push dirt into the trap springing it from outside the trap.
