Gopher & Ground Squirrel Abatement

Gophers and ground squirrels do damage you can't ignore: collapsed lawns, ruined gardens, chewed irrigation lines, undermined walkways and foundations, and burrow systems that spread across an entire property. Ground squirrels can also carry disease and attract predators. This is one of the things Global Rodent & Pest Services is known for. We don't just set a single trap and hope — we map the burrow system, target the active runs, and clear the population at the source. For properties with ongoing pressure from open fields or neighboring lots, we set up a recurring abatement plan to keep new colonies from moving in. We handle residential yards, commercial landscapes, ranches, ag operations, and industrial sites throughout Kern County. If your lawn is sinking or your garden keeps disappearing, give us a call for a free inspection.

FAQs

Gopher & Ground Squirrel Abatement — Frequently Asked Questions

What damage do gophers and ground squirrels cause?

They collapse lawns, destroy gardens and root systems, chew through irrigation and sprinkler lines, undermine walkways and foundations, and create burrow systems that spread across a property. Ground squirrels can also carry disease and attract predators like snakes.

Why not just use store-bought traps or gas?

Burrow systems are bigger than they look, and DIY methods usually clear one tunnel while the colony keeps expanding elsewhere. We map the active runs and treat the whole system at the source — which is why abatement actually holds instead of bouncing back in a few weeks.

Can you keep them from coming back?

For properties next to open fields, farmland, or vacant lots, new gophers and squirrels will keep migrating in. For those, we set up a recurring abatement plan so colonies get cleared before they can establish and do damage.

Do you handle large properties, ranches, and ag operations?

Yes. We treat residential yards, commercial landscapes, ranches, ag operations, and industrial sites across Kern County. Call us with the size and location of your property and we'll put together a plan.
