I have tried various means and traps really do the trick best.  Often it
is a single gopher (in our yard at least) that digs all the mounds.  Poison
just doesn't work well and it's too dangerous.  Gas does nothing at all
(referring to a previous net discussion).  Traps leave no doubt about
the fate of the gopher and often catch it within an hour.

Now, there was a great method described a while back that involved
sulphur, a blowtorch, and a wheelbarrow.  I wish I had the guts to try
this one!
