Gopher Removal in Pleasant Grove
Pocket gophers dig elaborate tunnel systems that compromise the integrity of lawns and gardens. They eat roots from below, kill young shrubs, and leave the fan-shaped soil mounds that make a yard look ruined overnight. We trap gophers using methods that are safe for you and your pets. Once the active gophers are gone, we recommend prevention strategies to keep new gophers from moving into the abandoned tunnel system.

Why is Professional Gopher Removal Important in Pleasant Grove?
Pleasant Grove sits in Utah County along the Wasatch Front, where canyon habitat to the east and lakeshore wetlands to the west drive wildlife pressure into residential neighborhoods year-round. A single gopher can produce 70 to 100 mounds per year, and one untreated property typically draws additional gophers into the existing tunnel network, which is why we tell Pleasant Grove property owners that untreated gopher tunnels collect water during irrigation, which kills lawn root systems even after the gopher itself has moved on. Utah Wildlife Specialists serves Pleasant Grove with same-day response, written warranty, and UDWR-compliant methods on every job.
What is included
- Trap-based control. Targeted, in-tunnel trapping is the most effective method for pocket gophers. No surface poisons that pets or wildlife can find.
- Quick eradication. We work the active tunnel system until the gopher activity stops. Most properties resolve in 1-2 service visits.
- Lawn and garden protection. Gopher tunnels compromise the integrity of your lawn and leave lumps that are almost impossible to fix even after the gophers are gone. The earlier you catch them, the less damage.
- Safe for pets and family. In-tunnel methods keep traps and bait away from pets and kids. Background-checked, fully insured technicians on every job.
Common questions
How do I know it is a gopher and not a mole or a vole?
Gophers leave fan-shaped or kidney-shaped soil mounds with a plug in the center. Moles leave volcano-shaped mounds. Voles do not mound at all - they make surface runways through grass.
Are your methods safe for pets and kids?
Yes. We trap inside tunnel systems, so traps are not exposed to surface animals. We do not use surface bait.

Will the gophers come back?
