“This is our 2nd pest control company we had! I’m so happy we changed companies! Our service guy is super nice and well educated on gophers. We had a few gophers in our backyard but haven’t seen them since our gopher service. It took about 1 yr and half with gopher maintenance but now no activity and our lawn is looking good again.”

GOPHER & MOLE REMOVAL
VERSA-TECH® GOPHER & MOLE WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT SERVICES
TRUSTED GOPHER & MOLE CONTROL FOR SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA HOMES & BUSINESSES
At Versa-Tech Pest Management, Inc., we understand how destructive burrowing pests like gophers and moles can be to your landscape. Based right here in San Dimas, California, our highly skilled and dedicated team of licensed pest professionals specialize in identifying, treating, and preventing gopher and mole infestations using proven methods tailored to your property’s unique needs.
Understanding Gopher Behavior & Why Gophers & Moles are a Problem
Gophers are small, burrowing rodents that spend most of their lives underground. While they’re rarely seen above the surface, the damage they cause is highly visible.
SoCal Gophers feed on roots, bulbs, and plants, leaving lawns, gardens, and orchards devastated.
Their tunneling can undermine soil structure, damage irrigation lines, and create hazards for pets, livestock, and equipment.
A single gopher can dig hundreds of feet of tunnels, often resulting in numerous fresh soil mounds across your yard.
Recognizing the signs early is key to preventing extensive damage.
Our Gopher Removal Process
At Versa-Tech, we use an integrated pest management approach to ensure safe, effective, and lasting results.
Comprehensive Property Inspection – A Versa-Tech Pro will inspect the interior and exterior of the home to find signs of critters and will identify activity areas, burrow systems, and entry points
Customized Treatment Plan – Depending on your property needs, we use targeted solutions such as professional-grade baiting, trapping, or exclusion techniques.
Ongoing Monitoring & Prevention – We don’t just remove the pests — we help you prevent future infestations with ongoing service options.
Residential & Commercial Expertise – From small backyards to golf courses and commercial properties, no job is too big or small.
Our Gopher Removal Methods
1. Gopher Trapping
Trapping is one of the most reliable methods of gopher control. Our technicians strategically set traps within active tunnels to quickly eliminate the target pest. This method is chemical-free, environmentally friendly, and ideal for residential yards or sensitive areas.
2. Gopher Baiting
When populations are larger or spread over bigger areas, baiting may be the most efficient solution. Using professionally applied baits, we target gophers within their underground systems. This method requires expert placement and monitoring to ensure safety and effectiveness. Over recent years, the state of Califonia has passed The Poison-Free Wildlife Act (AB2552), Califonia Ecosystems Protection Act (AB1322) and AB1788 all of these laws combined to eliminate the use of any commercial grade restricted gopher baits for use or sale in the state.
NOTICE: Versa-Tech is a rare company that has obtained a Restricted Use Permit (RUP) and we are trained and licensed in California to use Strychnine Alkaloid Gopher Bait called Omega Gopher Gain Bait. This means that Versa-Tech is one of the few Southern California pest control companies who can offer effective and consistent professional gopher control solutions.
3. Gopher Carbon Monoxide (CO₂) Injection Service
Our CO₂ treatment is a modern, highly effective solution. By introducing carbon monoxide into the tunnel system, we can quickly and humanely eliminate gophers without leaving behind toxic residues. This is especially useful in commercial or large-scale infestations.

Moles & Mole Control in Los Angeles & Orange Counties
Although often mistaken for gophers, moles are very different pests:
Moles are insectivores, not rodents, feeding primarily on grubs and earthworms.
Mole tunnels are shallower and often create raised ridges across lawns rather than large soil mounds.
While they don’t eat plants, their tunneling can uproot grass and disrupt landscaping.
Versa-Tech® Mole Control Services
Our mole control strategies are similar to gopher management but tailored to their specific biology and feeding habits. We focus on:
Mole Trapping within active runways to remove problem moles.
Subsurface Mole Treatments that reduce food sources, making your property less attractive.
Mole Baiting – we can use baiting methods to eliminate moles.
