Gopher Extermination in the Inland Empire
The Inland Empire — spanning Riverside and San Bernardino counties — is one of the most gopher-active regions in Southern California. Sandy loam soils, year-round irrigation, and rapid residential development create near-ideal conditions for pocket gophers throughout the region. Rodent Guys provides professional gopher extermination across the Inland Empire using chemical-free trapping and carbon monoxide. No rodenticide bait, safe for pets and children, backed by a 60-day guarantee.
We serve all major Inland Empire cities including Riverside, San Bernardino, Ontario, Rancho Cucamonga, Corona, Fontana, Moreno Valley, Eastvale, Chino Hills, Upland, Redlands, and dozens more. Call 909-599-4711 for a free estimate.
Gopher Extermination vs. Gopher Control — What Is the Difference?
The terms gopher extermination and gopher control are used interchangeably in the Inland Empire, but they describe the same professional service. A gopher exterminator inspects the property, locates the active tunnel system, applies treatment using trapping or carbon monoxide, and follows up to confirm the gopher has been eliminated. The goal is the same whether you call it extermination or control: a verified gopher-free property backed by a guarantee.
What separates Rodent Guys from most gopher exterminators in the Inland Empire is our method. We do not use rodenticide bait. Bait is the default for most general pest control companies because it is fast and inexpensive to deploy — but it poisons dogs and cats that scavenge bait-killed gophers and causes secondary poisoning in raptors. Trapping and carbon monoxide eliminate these risks and produce confirmed, verifiable results.
Why Gopher Extermination Is in High Demand Across the Inland Empire
Several factors make gopher extermination one of the most requested pest control services in the Inland Empire:
Soil conditions. Sandy and loamy soils throughout Riverside and San Bernardino counties are easy for gophers to tunnel through. Dense clay soils found in some coastal areas slow gopher activity — the Inland Empire does not have this natural deterrent.
New development. The Inland Empire is one of the fastest-growing regions in California. New residential developments in Eastvale, Jurupa Valley, Chino Valley, and the Temecula-Murrieta corridor displace existing gopher populations into adjacent landscaped properties. New sod and irrigation in freshly landscaped yards attract displaced gophers almost immediately.
Foothill open space. Communities along the base of the San Gabriel, San Bernardino, and San Jacinto mountains border extensive natural areas with dense gopher populations. Gophers migrate continuously from these open spaces into adjacent maintained yards, making ongoing maintenance service a practical necessity for many homeowners.
Year-round activity. Unlike colder regions where gopher activity slows in winter, Inland Empire temperatures rarely drop low enough to suppress gopher tunneling. Gopher extermination is needed year-round throughout the region.
