Description
xThe GONZO Surefire Gopher Trap is an all-steel, heavy-duty trap built to remove pocket gophers and moles from lawns and gardens quickly and reliably.
Designed for homeowners and gardeners who want a targeted, non-chemical solution, this GONZO trap combines rugged alloy-steel construction with a proven spring mechanism to deliver dependable field performance. Its compact footprint and rust-resistant materials make it suitable for seasonal use in yards, flower beds, and vegetable gardens without complex setup or maintenance.
How does the GONZO trap stop gophers and moles effectively?
The trap uses a sensitive, calibrated strike mechanism that activates inside active tunnels to deliver an immediate result. Because it targets activity within a tunnel, it reduces the chance of catching non-target animals when placed correctly.
- Alloy-steel body resists deformation for consistent trigger action.
- Designed specifically for pocket gopher and mole tunnel sizes.
- Calibrated strike reduces failed catches and resets requirements.
Is the trap easy to set and reposition in a yard?
Yes — the GONZO Surefire trap requires no assembly and can be set with basic hand tools or gloved hands. Its 13 x 7 x 6 inch size stays compact enough to move between active tunnels and to store when not in use.
- Simple setup procedure works without batteries or electronics.
- Lightweight at about 10.1 oz for easy relocation.
- Fits into standard gopher and mole run openings for quick deployment.
Will this trap withstand outdoor conditions over time?
The trap is constructed from alloy steel that resists bending and typical outdoor wear. While the material is rust-resistant, periodic inspection and clearing of soil or debris will prolong its working life and maintain reliability.
- Heavy-duty alloy steel for durability and long service life.
- Rust-resistant finish minimizes corrosion between uses.
- Robust springs and fasteners designed for repeated cycles.
What safety and practical tips should I follow when using it?
The GONZO trap is intended for outdoor use in tunnels and should be handled with care during setting and disposal. Use gloves when handling and follow local regulations for humane dispatch and carcass disposal.
- Wear gloves to protect hands and reduce human scent on the trap.
- Place only in confirmed, active runs to limit non-target captures.
- Check traps frequently and follow local guidance for carcass removal.
