This traps rocks and it saved me $200 (going rate for a trapper around here).
I received the Black Hole yesterday, read the brief instructions, watched some Youtube videos and set the trap about two hours ago. Came back to check on it and the dang gopher packed a bunch of dirt into it and pushed it out away from the entrance of the tunnel. I think light was seeping in between the trap and tunnel since I didn't put too much dirty around the seam.
I set it in place once again and placed a lot more loose soil around the edge where the product was pushed up against the tunnel. Went to fly my Dromida Ominus quadcopter (Christmas present to myself bought on Amazon) just feet away and 5 minutes later I heard something snap. Wishful thinking was that the trap caught something, but I assumed it was some other random noise. Walked up to the hole and saw the trap moving around. Really, success already? Pulled the trap away from the tunnel and there it was, a gopher, the source of my grief, and a torn up lawn, for months. Sweet!
My suggestions:
- Buy two. When you dig for the tunnel you probably wont hit the actual end. You'll probably see one tunnel opening on both sides of your hole. If the gopher is coming the wrong way it can't enter the trap. So having two allows you to set them almost back to back and not have to worry about which direct the gopher is traveling through the tunnel. I plan to buy a second one right away since I only bought one. However, DON'T push their back sides against each other. The small round hole needs to allow light to enter the tunnel.
- Look at the instructions and youtube videos so you understand how to set the trap.
- Don't close off the small round hole at the end of the trap! It's designed to throw light and wind into the tunnel so the gopher comes to investigate and attempt to seal the opening to their tunnel.
- I inserted a piece of carrot through the small round opening after putting the trap in its place. Some folks say this attracts the gopher since they like to eat their veggies. I guess too many veggies can be bad for your health.
- Insert some soil into the bottom interior of the trap before setting it in place so the gopher doesn't notice that something is out of the ordinary.
I attached a picture of my second attempt with more loose soil around the seam of the trap and the tunnel entrance. This may have made the small round hole at the opposite end be the only light source and coaxed it further into the trap. I'll refrain from attaching a photo of the corpse.
And it's made in the USA! Awesome product!!!
