DESTRUCTIVE NATURE
A single gopher may construct over 300
mounds per year and will move over 4 tons of
dirt
per year. Alfalfa production can be
seriously reduced by destruction of root
crowns, not to mention the damage caused by
the mound to the product and equipment at
harvest time. Gophers cut roots of trees and
vines and gnaw the bark of trees, at times
completely
encircling them so that they die
unless saved by bridge grafts. The damages
cost landowners millions, if not billions of
dollars each year. |
