Victor M6006 Outdoor Mole & Gopher Poison Peanuts, Mole and Gopher Killer Bait, 4 Pack

I was skeptical about the product, after reading reviews from users from Southen California. 3 reviews from Southern California had the product ineffective. Nevertheless, I used a 12" screw driver to poke holes to an area about 3 to 4 inches away(vertically) from the fresh mound. Going horizontal about 2 to 3 inches apart, poking until finding areas that gives and dips down without resistance. Used tip of the container to enlarge the hole, and dropped capful of pellets. Dropped capful of pellets to few tunnel pathways. No more mound, next morning. It's been about 2 weeks, without seeing new dirt mounds. Happy with the result.

I bought three traps. None of them works! Bought this and used it the first round. No more sign of gopher!

Thank you

never got an observable effect. i followed directions. maybe the formulation changed since last year? price was right but if it doesn't work price comparison is meaningless.

I have been struggling to get rid of gopher damage in my pasture and this product worked well! I had probably 50 mounds and within 3 days there were no more mounds popping up. The key is not just pushing cone down in dirt but making sure you see their tunnel opening and placing product there. I left the hole open or piling grass on top vs putting rock on top and the next day they filled the hole and must have eaten the product cause no subsequent mounds.

So I find the packaging deceptive. I’ve been working on a significant VOLE with a V for over a year now. I have read so much about what does and doesn’t work. I have spoken with two professional rodent eradicator professionals who basically both told me the same thing which is that because of the number of times you have to check your traps and replace your poisons and check on the tunnels that no one is really willing to pay that amount of money that it really cost to have someone eradicate them so they just stopped Working with clients on VOLE problems. So if you haven’t realized it at this point In your research, moles feed on Grubbs and VOLES Feed on the tender roots Of a lawn among other atrocities including killing trees by eating the precious outer layers of tree trunks which are the protective layer of the outside of a tree intended to keep insects from penetrating the bark and damaging the tree and even killing the tree. Which brings me to the question, why did God-Bring us these destructive small rodents?!?! Well of course I know part of the issue is the purpose they serve for those large wing birds of prey circling my lawn daily and scaring my three Chihuahuas! But enough of that wormhole! Bottom line, after following the instructions I see no sign that my, 340 or 460 voles or any less healthy than they were before treatment. So I’m returning The two year supply I purchased, LOL. I read a lot of really good reviews before I purchased this product but this product is just not working for me. So the search continues! And let me just go back to the packaging… Because of the way it is shaped I had made a false assumption that clipping off the pointed end and then letting it self feed down into the well traveled pathways of the colony would be all that was necessary to completely eradicate my legions of Pests. Turns out, this clever packaging engineer/marketing team creative packaging that looks like it might be used in one way, like described above, but actually your recommendation is that you use to pointed in to create the hole in which you pour the product from at the other end of the packaging, which is predictably a screwtop. Now in the last years I’ve been fighting these varmints I’ve never had a problem which is finding a small twig to create the hole to verify the existence of vowels and location of their well traveled tunnels. Why in the world with this company think I need a cone shaped container to pour a product from or create A small hole for the purpose of pouring the poison into the tunnel?

Been using for years now. Once I see the tunnels, I put about a teaspoon in each hole (every 5-8 feet) and wait a day or two to crush down the tunnels. If the tunnels re-appear, I hit the new tunnels one more time with another teaspoon and then crush the new tunnels in another day or two and they tend not to re-appear after that. Repeat each season or every few months if tunnels re=appear.

Killed the gopher/mole. Put poison peanuts in 7 different holes. Covered the hole with a rock so no other animal would eat it. No activity in 5 days, so it is dead and underground and no more lawn damage.
