Title: Did not work for my gopher
Product review: This is the first set of traps I used for my gopher problem in my yard. It came with instructions on only how to set the trap, not where to place it in regards to the gopher hole/runway. After researching how to set box-style traps, I tried for a week in various locations throughout my yard where there was recent activity. The problem wasn't finding the gopher, but it was that the gopher would push dirt into the trap and not set it off. He was essentially pushing about three inches of dirt into the trap and sealing off himself from the plastic intrusion. The lever to set off the trap is even further back from that, so he never got far enough in the trap to do what it's supposed to do. I finally purchased a two-pack of Victor Easy Set metal traps, and caught the sunofagun on the first setting of the traps. Other people have had success with this type of trap, but not me. Hope this helps people in the future.
