There are over 100 types of this rodent in the United States. Gophers are easily identified by their long, hard front teeth, tiny ears, small eyes and short tails.
These pests are known for building complex underground tunnel systems. They use their front legs and long teeth to push dirt out of their tunnels and onto the grass
above. Gophers like to be alone; only one gopher will be found in a tunnel system. These vegetarian pests only eat roots, trees, shrubs, grass and plants and can be
responsible for ruining lawns, killing trees and destroying gardens.
