When you see gopher holes popping up in your yard, you'll want to have one of these on hand. The Victor® Easy Set® Gopher Trap effectively kills gophers without the use of chemicals or poisons. The trap features galvanized steel construction for superior strength and durability. The trap’s narrow design with short base allows for easy insertion into gopher tunnels and keeps moving parts completely below the surface, safely away from children and pets.
Victor® Easy Set ® Gopher Traps are easy to use and come fully assembled and with illustrated operating instructions on setting and placement. As the most reliable gopher trap on the market, you can rest assured that your yard is safe from the damaging effects of gophers.
Gopher trapping can be done at any time of year, but generally is easiest and most effective during Spring & Fall. Once gopher activity is detected it is important to move quickly as pregnant females can be caught before giving birth to her family.
Traps are most effective when placed in the gopher tunnel and with 2 traps back to back. The hole should be covered up with dirt so that it appears as if the trap is part of the runway.
When used correctly, traps produce a catch within 48 hours. It is best to move the trap to another location in the runway if you do not catch a gopher in this timeframe.
This economical twin-pack contains 2 traps per pack for a total of 4 traps.

An old style design, pretty much a copy of Macabee traps. These were sold individually for about $8 at Ace Hardware in my area, the popular big stores didn't have them. Did a little research on the internet on how to find the tunnels to set them. Within 24 hours, a gopher was caught. They are reusable, so I set them in a different spot in my yard that may be infested.

Reviewer: J.R.B.
My Dad started trapping pocket gophers 45 years ago with 8 #0615 Victor traps. In seven years he trapped over 800 of the pesky things from a ten acre patch. One trap was lost, one trap was loaned out and never returned, and I wore another out. That left me with 5 of "the old green traps". I bought four of these easy sets to replenish my trap supply. I like this model for the bigger tunnels and still use the #0615 for small tunnels.

Gophers excavate soil from their tunnels, creating large, horseshoe-shaped mounds. Gopher mounds are typically larger than Mole hills with the entrance hole at an angle to the ground surface.
