Dead and Gone.........after losing quite a few expensive plants and noticing the activity was accelerating, I felt a panic settling in, which was worsened when I found it difficult to get info, estimates, and especially.......just someone that would give me an appointment. This is obviously a busy year for gophers and hunters alike, and it was my first experience doing battle. My Initial attempts that proved worthless were poison and sonic spikes. The only company that could make an appointment, (eight days out), required a completed form and commitment of minimum treatments and a guarantee of payments totaling over $1000, and this before even coming to my home! Then I called Ricky at Gopher Guys. NOTE: There's also a 'Gopher Guy' that I had called with no results, so as I kept scrolling down the list on Yelp, I initially skipped Gopher Guys thinking I had already called them. On a subsequent search I realized the mistake and called. Ricky quickly said he'd send someone the next day, and as promised, Alonso showed up right on time the next morning. After calming my nerves, he went to work. I have a huge front garden with hundreds of plants, and three levels which vary in degrees of incline from 30* to 45*. What he did in an hour would have taken me all day, maybe longer since I am without the experience or knowledge of how to analyze the gopher activity or determine where the best places were to set the traps. It's trickier than it looks. He came back four days later to collect the bodies, and left a few traps for clean up. In review: Quick response whenever I called; Friendly, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to deal with; Immediate results; AND, it would seem, the best price on the peninsula..........and worth every penny. read more

Update 6/27/25: Alonso contacted me yesterday evening regarding the no-show...stated how busy they are, which I get...tis the season! I explained that all I ask is communication...whenever issues arise, no problem...just let me know. He came to the house today, set 14 traps (yep...we have a gopher issue) & all is well! I applaud Alonso for addressing the issue & making things right! I respect someone who does that! Thanks Alonso! After reading all the positive reviews, I decided to contact The Gopher Guys regarding our ground squirrel issue. I emailed twice before getting a response. He said they could come by today (6/26/25) to provide an estimate & asked if we would be available between 10:00 - 12:00. I replied asking if 11:00 would work & they didn't respond...so, I was just hopeful that they would show up. Nope! They didn't show up nor did I receive a phone call. I've called twice, but it goes to voicemail...left a message. So disgusted with "professionals" exhibiting unprofessional behavior! I rarely leave reviews and, when I do, they're because of stellar service...but, I'm simply tired of this disrespectful behavior & want to find someone who actually cares about their customers! read more

What a great job Alonso did with my gopher problem. My back yard was starting to look like Caddy Shack! He came out the next day after my initial call. He evaluated my problem and gave me a quote. He set the traps and came back two days later and found 4 dead gophers in his traps. He reset the traps and came back a few days later and caught one more. I look forward to a beautiful lawn again. Please, don't think twice about hiring him, you won't be disappointed but the gophers will. read more

Great experience with The Gopher Guys, they were able to come out the same day I called to set up the traps and then come back later the same week to check them. They clearly know what they are doing, no new gopher mounds appeared after their traps were set up and on the 2nd visit to check traps, the first few traps they had set each had caught a gopher. Friendly and professional service as well, would definitely recommend! read more

The Gopher Guys were fantastic. They have trapped 19 gophers on my property which is 19 more than the pest control company was able to do. They know what they are doing and one pays based on the number trapped so they have a commitment to success. I expect to use themj each spring to cull the gophers on my property and to protect my considerable investment of time and money in plants. read more

Very responsive and professional. Also very effective and efficient. Wiped out our gopher problem in less than one week. Extremely friendly and very reasonably priced. I never post reviews. But I felt I had to share how great these guys are! read more

I have used this company for two years. They are fantastic. Prompt, efficient, and great at catching gophers. Alonso and the others are really good at finding the right areas to trap them. Great prices too. Highly recommended. read more

My gopher situation was out of control. The Gopher Guys were quick to respond and inside of a week have already caught 4 gophers. Amazing. Alphonso is considerate and always comes when he says. I am so glad I gave them a call. read more

Alonzo called to confirm his arrival. When I showed him the area where the gopher was digging, the gopher came from across the street and was caught under Alonzo's boot...easy-peese. read more
