Gopher Trapping Set, Includes Wedge & Probe Tool, 1 GH-Set

This trap is a winner. I have used many different types of traps to catch moles, and this trap is way more effective. I caught two moles I had been trying to catch for two years. The trap is very easy to set up, with the mere use of a stick to poke a hole in the ground, minimally disturbing the mole's tunnel. The trap is best suited for tunnels that are six inches or more deep. I am very satisfied with this trap. Well designed. Just be careful not to crush the metal straps when you set the spring.

For the last 4 years we’ve paid for pest control to set traps to get rid of our mole problem. Living in a rural location with a large garden it was becoming too expensive to keep getting them in. So after god knows how many mole mounds in our front and back garden I read up about the gopher hawk. Seemed like a great option. Had to purchase from the US at a cost of £50. So far no results and I’m beginning to think it’s because I need a few of these traps but at 50 quid a pop it’s just not an option. Would like to see these in the UK at a cheaper price so you can have a number of them set at once. Will report back if I manage to catch a mole.

Un excenlente trampa para las tuzas y muy segura

After the first couple weeks trying this trap, I thought it was garbage and was ready to return it. Then I started catching moles. We have been tormented with moles on our property for years in the Pacific NW. We've tried tons of mole repellent, smoke bombs, poison, etc but the only thing that has worked are in-ground traps--I've trapped dozens of moles with these over the years but they require digging up even more of the yard, are time consuming, dirty, and I'm just tired of them. The Gopherhawk looked interesting and the price wasn't bad, so here we are. I love how easy this trap is to set--just probe around a fresh mole mound for the tunnel, make a larger hole with the included tool, then stick the trap in and pull it back to engage it--no more digging! Then wait, if nothing happens after a few days then you'll want to find a better tunnel. I also love the yellow indicator that shows when it has been triggered, so you can check the trap by just looking out your window. Even after the first week or two of getting used to it, I have set the trap about 12 times and trapped 5 moles in the last month. These are better results than I ever had with previous traps and much easier. All it leaves behind is the small hole from the trap that you can step on to fill it in. There was only one "misfire" where the mole pushed dirt into the trigger and it fired with no mole to show for it. The action end of this does seem a little fragile but so far it is still working fine after several triggers, and I like that they sell replacement ends when it does finally break. Overall, highly recommend and happy with results!

It works! I purchased a second set.
