Most people assume that gophers, voles, moles and raccoons are seasonal pests. Although it is true that most of these critters can be more active during their mating seasons (Spring and Summer), in California these pests can cause damage all-year-round.
At Got Gophers we prefer the trapping method over the use of poisons for two reasons:
Trapping gets rid of the pest permanently, whereas poisons may or may not work.
Trapping is environmentally friendly, protecting pets, children, and wildlife.
