Amdro Gopher Gasser (Pack Of 6)
Amdro Gopher Gasser (Pack Of 6)
Reliable Gopher Control
Although Gopher Gassers are not considered organic, we offer these for home gardeners who may be extremely frustrated by their problematic gopher situation. Gopher gassers contain potassium nitrate, carbon, sulfur (all components of gunpowder) and dextrin (a polysaccharide), which when used sparingly, are not harmful to soils.
Quick, reliable, effective control of pocket gophers, moles, and ground squirrels. The toxic gas produced will penetrate the air in their burrows and exterminate the pests or repel them to move somewhere else. Please do not use these for non-target species or near endangered species' habitats.
Gopher gassing is a method used to control and eliminate gophers, which are notorious burrowing rodents known for causing damage to lawns, gardens, and agricultural fields. This method involves introducing a gas, typically carbon monoxide or a specialized gopher smoke bomb like the Amdro Gopher Gasser, into the gopher's tunnel system. In this article, we will delve into the details of gopher gassing, its benefits, and the specific product Amdro Gopher Gasser.
Understanding Gophers and Their Destructive Behavior
Gophers are small, burrowing mammals that belong to the family Geomyidae. They are primarily herbivorous and are notorious for their extensive tunneling activities. These tunnels, which include main runways, lateral tunnels, and nesting chambers, can undermine the stability of the ground, damage plant roots, and disrupt irrigation systems. Gopher mounds and holes also pose tripping hazards and create an unsightly landscape.
The Basics of Gopher Gassing
Gopher gassing is a humane and effective method for controlling gopher populations and mitigating the damage they cause. The primary idea behind gopher gassing is to introduce a gas into the gopher's tunnel system, displacing oxygen and causing the gopher to suffocate within its burrow.
Carbon Monoxide vs. Smoke Bombs
Carbon monoxide and specialized smoke bombs are commonly used agents for gopher gassing. Carbon monoxide is released using a hose or probe connected to a vehicle's exhaust system or a dedicated carbon monoxide generator. The gas is pumped into the gopher tunnel, gradually displacing oxygen and rendering the burrow inhospitable to the gopher.
Specialized gopher smoke bombs, like the Amdro Gopher Gasser, are designed for convenient and safe use by homeowners and gardeners. These smoke bombs produce dense, non-toxic smoke that fills the gopher tunnels, suffocating the pests. Unlike carbon monoxide, which requires specialized equipment and safety precautions, smoke bombs are easy to use and do not require extensive training.
The Amdro Gopher Gasser
The Amdro Gopher Gasser is a popular choice among homeowners and gardeners for its effectiveness and ease of use. It comes in the form of a smoke bomb that is ignited and inserted into the gopher tunnel system. Once ignited, the smoke bomb releases a dense and non-toxic smoke that rapidly fills the tunnels, forcing the gopher to exit or suffocate.
Amdro Gopher Gassers are known for their reliability and ability to penetrate even complex gopher tunnel systems. They are designed to be inserted into the main burrow or a lateral tunnel, ensuring that the smoke reaches the entire network of tunnels and chambers. These smoke bombs are also designed with safety in mind, with clear usage instructions and precautions for homeowners.
Benefits of Gopher Gassing
Gopher gassing offers several advantages over other control methods:
Effectiveness: When used correctly, gopher gassing is highly effective at eliminating gopher populations within their burrows.
Minimal Disturbance: Gopher gassing minimizes disruption to the landscape compared to trapping or poisoning, which can result in dead gophers on the surface.
Convenience: Specialized smoke bombs like the Amdro Gopher Gasser are user-friendly and do not require complex equipment or extensive training.
Gopher gassing, using methods such as the Amdro Gopher Gasser, is a practical and effective approach to controlling gophers and mitigating the damage they cause. Its convenience, minimal environmental impact, and humane nature make it a preferred choice for many homeowners and gardeners dealing with gopher infestations. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions and safety guidelines when using gopher gassing products to ensure safe and successful pest control.

Let customers speak for us
I grow this in old litter boxes for a bunny & Guinea pig rescue- it is a great treat! Grows fast, thick and moist. I also grow it in my catio for my cats
High quality saffron corms that shipped when they said they would. They started sprouting in my cabinet within a week so definitely plant them quickly after receiving.
They looked good when the plants arrived. Waiting for planters to transplant so they'll have more room, but not planting in the garden to avoid the mint from spreading all over. They're still alive....
Beautiful seed garlic
This tree takes a lot of patience, both in years to fully fruit out and in terms of how late in the season the peaches finally ripen, - the end of September here in zone 5b, - but boy are they amazing when they come in! I have two other peach trees, - Redhaven and Reliance, which have wonderful fruit, but these Indian Free White peaches are amazing. The aroma alone is incredible. These also have thicker skins, more "fuzz," which you can rub off, and are a bit on the acidic side, but OH so yummy! I have gotten raves from the farmers who tried them.
Been using this for last couple growing season. Works wonders for the garden.
This hose gets dragged over bark and around raised garden beds, and also over concrete and a weedy hillside to water a couple trees. So far it has performed well and there aren't any leaks or kinks!
I have not had a chance to plant these yet as it’s still a little early. Package came quickly and garlic was beautiful, can’t wait to plant it.
This is a great addition to my veg garden area!
These branch supports work well, are sturdy, and relatively cheap. While you do have to provide your own poles, you can buy wooden or metal ones of your needed length at hardware or home improvement stores. We ordered ten at first and then bought ten more after seeing how the first ones worked.
Of course I wanted a hand made wooden trug, but they are expensive! This plastic one is easy to clean, and the perfect size. I love the drainage holes.
No lightweight nonsense here! These are the one of the industry standards in tree pots and they have become our go to on the tree farm. You will find lightweight look-a-likes out there, but most only serve one time use. These have held up for years and been used multiple times in some cases.
This has become one of my new favorites for all around propagation. From seeds to cuttings we use this mix for our fig trees and have had unbelievable success. The mix is formulated for strong and fast root development. No complaints about it!
These trays are great. Everything is ready to go.
I use them for cuttings and seed starting and haven't been disappointed yet.
I had the frustration of having my dog dig up my citrus trees and figs out of their containers. I was furious. This granular repellent has stopped the dog completely. So now, the dog can stay.
