Gophers and Prairie Dogs Destroying Your Property? Here's What You Can Do
Across the White Mountains, landowners and homeowners alike know the damage that gophers and prairie dogs can cause. From torn-up lawns and damaged irrigation to collapsed foundations and unsafe ground, these burrowing pests can become a serious problem fast if left unchecked.
At Neff Exterminating, we help property owners take back control with proven solutions to eliminate gophers and prairie dogs—safely, effectively, and professionally. If you’ve spotted fresh mounds, tunnels, or visible activity, now is the time to act.
How to Tell If Gophers or Prairie Dogs Are on Your Property
Both pests burrow underground and cause visible signs above ground. Here’s how to identify which one you’re dealing with:
- Gophers: Look for crescent-shaped dirt mounds with no visible entrance. They tend to work solo and leave behind extensive tunneling under lawns and gardens.
- Prairie Dogs: Typically live in large colonies with multiple visible holes. You’ll often see them during the day, standing guard or foraging near the openings.
While different in behavior, both species are destructive and difficult to remove without professional help.
Why Gopher and Prairie Dog Control is Important
Ignoring the problem won’t make it go away—these pests multiply quickly and expand their territory over time. Leaving them unchecked can result in:
- Dead grass and landscape damage
- Broken sprinkler systems and utility lines
- Injury risk from unstable or collapsed ground
- Increased exposure to fleas, ticks, and disease vectors
The sooner you act, the easier it is to eliminate the colony and prevent long-term damage.
