We all like having fun in the garden. There are pests though that are such a kill joy. We are lucky nowadays that we have developed a technology that will not harm us people, particularly the old and little ones, and other creatures that do not pose a threat at all to our garden or to humans. Unlike before when we used traps, chemicals or pesticides, today, we have electronic yard fences, ultrasonic devices, and strobe lights that can do the job in eliminating the pests in the yard.
In this way, undesirable animals such as gophers, moles, squirrels, deer, cats, dogs and others cannot get inside the yard at the same time their lives will be spared. How safer can it be even for the pests. The ears of the animals will hear a high frequency sound or vibration coming from the ultrasonic devices. Because it pains them, they would stay away. I have a friend who absolutely despised the squirrels in her yard. They did damage not only to her plants, but to her house as well and ate her canvas chairs on the deck. She purchased an ultrasonic device and it worked great! At this point in time, my friend is satisfied. As to the squirrels, they get to live another day.
Considerable harm can be brought about by gophers and moles on your garden, plants and shrubs. Your lawn will be ruined with all the bumps on the surface. It's even dangerous to walk about because you might stumble or sprain your ankle. Because their home is situated below the ground, what they usually do is burrow their way up making an aeration tube for them to use. The problem is they do it in your well-cared yard. A stretch of several miles and 2 to 5 feet deep, that is how their tunnels measure. It's innate in them to dig and they can produce up to 12 babies per family. What they eat, they automatically convert it to energy so their bodies do not stock up fat and that is why they do not hide away and sleep. The estimated yearly intake of food for a mole is 40 pounds. It's their way of life -dig, eat, dig eat. Moles feed on worms, which are important in plant aeration to make the plants grow healthy. Gophers attack on plants, they devour the plant material and roots.
The moles do roundabouts when making above the ground tunnels while gophers do it in line form but it's not quite often you see above the ground tunnels made by gophers. If a gopher's mound looks like a kidney bean, a mole's mound looks like a tiny cone that is upside down. These tiny rodents live beneath the ground on healthy, verdant lawns. Root of trees, grains, grasses, shrubs and vegetables in diversity are what moles and gophers usually eat on. They mostly like to eat lilies, irises, tulips, carrots, peas and beans. Aside from the preferred rooted out, worms and insects, plant materials are also included in a mole's diet. On the other hand, gophers prefer nice juicy plant material. Do you know that gophers, moles, voles, chipmunks and woodchucks are highly intellectual beings? These creatures are notorious in their elusion from our old ways of pest control such as traps, baits and poisons.
It's plain to see that you have a gopher or mole in your backyard by how your garden looks like - full of mounds and tunnels and a lot of damage. I advocate life. I do not kill. The spiders at home, I don't stomp on them, I put them out, and the snakes when I see one in the yard, I just remove them there and transfer near the lake (okay, you might think I'm CRAZY!). Thus, I suggest you go now and purchase an ultrasonic device at the store. It's much safer and all life is protected.
