    Jason with the big gopher tearing up our yard. Caught in less than 48 hours!
    Kiandra J.

    Great company! One of the best companies ever! Will always encourage others to use them. Knowledgeable and great service. Jason is top tier and makes me proud to support small business.

    Gopher Caught

    DeAndre came out, quickly identified a gopher was causing all my front yard issues. He set up a trap, and in 2 days, the culprit was caught. Great communication with everything explained. It's a little pricey, but if you want the problem solved, Gopher Stop is the solution.

    Gopher Stop is the BEST. My husband and I started spotting little mountains of sand in our backyard. He noticed a mountain of sand next to our AC and we decided to look for help. While I was searching on Yelp, I came across Gopher Stop with 5 star reviews, we contacted them and they were able to assist us quick. We requested service and on Sunday we set the appointment and Wednesday morning DeAndre showed up, very kind, respectful, friendly, and very informative. He set up traps and today Friday morning came to pick them up, and yes we caught 3 gophers. We are very happy with the great service. Amazing job and very accurate. The value was super great. I truly recommend them. We are super satisfied with their job and we will request them and contact DeAndre if anything comes up again. Thank You Gopher Stop and Big Huge Thanks to DeAndre Blessings

    Finally! We have tried everything for months to stop this giant gopher in our front yard. Larry caught him AND two other gophers first try. Fast, professional service with great results, highly recommend.

    Sorry but you had to go!!!

    Best service, very professional and knowledgeable and communication was perfect! Aaron was our gopher whisperer!!! He guaranteed he would take care of our gopher problem and true to his word he did! He set traps and said he would back the next morning to remove the gopher and just like that it was done!!! Thank you Aaron for your great service and for removing the stressful gopher that was ruining our front, side and back yard causing us work and stress! I highly recommend Gopher Stop and Aaron to anyone with gopher or pest issues!!! Worth every penny!!!

    I can start by saying that this company was quickly responsive when I called and left a message for service. Aaron came out and was a pleasant man to speak to. Very professional. However, the cost and lack of gopher eradication is why I'm at a 3 star. The initial cost to come out, look for signs of gophers, and set traps was $275.00. Seemed steep, but I wanted my yard eradicated so I could enjoy my grass area. I believe 3 traps were set initially. I do live on the back side of a golf course as full disclosure. When Aaron returned, one trap had a gopher, and the other 2 traps had nothing. However, I was told that the traps had been activated, so something must have come along and eaten two of them. I was still charged $45 per empty trap. I did not think this was fair, but I thought, in the long run, I would be gopher free. Also, he said he could put poison in two places along the tunnels. That was a charge of $10 per spot, so another $20. Still had a gopher issue. When I called again, I was at the point where I felt like I'd already paid a good sum of money and all of that amounted to (if I recall) actually one gopher caught. This last time he came out, I was hesitant to want to use two or more $45 traps. Aaron suggested he could put down more poison. I thought, okay, let's try more poison. Only this time, instead of charging me $10 per area (3 areas), he said the price was $20 each area now. I did not understand how the price for poison jumped up to double. I paid the $60 because I was hoping to eradicate the gophers. Nope. The very expensive $60 poison remedy also did not work. I messaged Aaron again and was told that to just wait another week or so and "see". Welp. I saw. And I see. I see I still have the same level of gopher activity in my yard. I didn't contact Aaron again because the only thing that was eradicated was cash from my pocket.

    It's amazing how much dirt a gopher can move, the photo below is day 3 and the smallest of the 3 huge piles of excavated dirt from underneath our yard and driveway. Little lady built a Carlsbad Cavern replica in our place. Aaron knew what to do, calmed our nerves, and trapped the offender within a couple days. Prompt responsive service and well worth the price. Would recommend for others without hesitation, the service simply works.

    First try
    J L.

    It took two tries, but they killed the gopher that decided to dine out on my brand new sod.

    One Stop..Gopher Stop is Very Professional and Punctual..I truly appreciate Aaron taking care of my Gopher problem..thank you very much..

    Ask the Community - Gopher Stop

    Do you also get rid of field mice because we have a problem with both?

    We offer gopher and mosquito service.

    I am a senior on a fixed income. I have gophers every year. Is there something I can spread on my lawn that will repel the gophers? Any ideas, that are reasonable?

    Hi Connie, this is Larry with Gopher Stop. One effective method is using castor oil-based repellents. Gophers dislike the smell and taste of castor oil, so applying these repellents around your yard can help deter them.… Read more

    I don' t know if the holes in are yard are due to gophers, ground squirrels, or rabbits (we definitely have rabbits and squirrels in our yard). Can you take care of rabbits and squirrels, too, or only gophers?

    Trapping rabbits and squirrels requires special licensing in California. Gopher Stop is licensed for gophers and insects in yards. You can message us with photos of the activity you see for an identification at www.gopherstop.biz.

    I know you are all about the gophers but I was wondering if you install fencing that would work to keep both gophers AND snakes (1/4 inch) around the perimeter of my backyard?

    Great question Michael. We recommend contacting any local trenching or concrete service for that type of work. It can be labor intensive and having the proper equipment can make a big difference. Gopher Stop uses “state of the art” traps and… Read more

    What is your prices?

    Our pricing is based on several factors. Please give us a call for a quote based on your specific gopher issue so we can be accurate in our answer. Thanks for asking!

    Why are the gophers in the neighborhood only ruining my yard?

    This is a great question! Many people feel like they are the only ones affected by gophers. Gophers are wild animals and they seem to choose where they live at random. There are three specific elements required to have a gopher in your yard: 1.… Read more

Jonathan cleaned the nest, educated me on possums, and then took them to be relocated in better area for them, than urban Rialto. Thank for your great service and care for those caught.

    I don't know where to even begin when it comes to anything other than cats and dogs in my yard,…read morewhich is why I keep these guys on speed dial! With water being harder and harder to find and the fires taking more and more of the "wild" , wildlife has been more frequent these days.... And those little critters are destructive! The first time: I came home to an enclosed patio COVERED in little white raccoon handprints IN PAINT! Those suckers opened up a paint can and decided to play with it while I was gone one weekend....and once they knew how much fun it was to play in my patio I couldn't keep them away. So I called Urban Wildlife Trapping. On another occasion: I had a possum that decided to take up residency under my shed.... Which would have been fine if it didn't try to climb the dang thing every night- all I heard were those nails on the metal siding for HOURS..... so I had to make another call to Urban Wildlife Trapping... Then: There was ANOTHER family of raccoons.... And then a fox that identified as a house cat... and lastly another family of raccoons. I am not sure when my home became so welcoming but it may get to a point that I'll need to rent a room to one of the employees and Urban Wildlife Trapping so they cane save on gas money getting out to my place! Everyone here is so nice, very professional and well trained in trapping animals humanely and efficiently. Who knew that a one time google for animal trappers would lead me to a company that I would gladly use over and over. Thanks guys for all you help in the past, and I am sure with this heat I will see you soon!
