Gopher Hotspots in Highgrove
Highgrove sits on alluvial fan soils in the western Inland Empire, with Main Street corridor, Highgrove Park, and Box Springs Mountain Reserve adjacency providing the geographic context. Alluvial fan soils allow gopher tunnel excavation at roughly twice the speed seen in heavier clay soils. Mature residential landscaping across older neighborhoods supports deeply-established interior colonies.

Highgrove Gopher Control FAQs
How much does gopher control cost in Highgrove?
Flat pricing for Highgrove properties: $325 for initial service (full property, trap setup, 60-day guarantee), $65/month for maintenance, or $175/quarter. No square-footage surcharges or per-mound fees. Call 909-599-4711 for scheduling.
Do you use poison in Highgrove?
No. Rodent Guys uses trapping only across all Highgrove service — no rodenticides, no gas cartridges, no strychnine. Trapping is safer for pets, children, and the hawks and owls that naturally suppress rodent populations throughout Riverside County.
How fast do gophers come back in Highgrove?
It depends on what borders the property. Highgrove homes adjacent to open space, wildland, water corridors, or agricultural land typically see reinvasion within weeks because the external reservoir resupplies continuously — those properties benefit most from monthly maintenance. Interior properties with buffer from external sources often stay clear for months after initial service.
What's the difference between a gopher and a mole in Highgrove?
Gopher mounds are fan-shaped with a dirt plug offset to one side. Mole mounds are conical and symmetrical with a central plug. Highgrove has both species; they require different trap types and placement. Our technicians identify the correct species on the initial inspection before setting traps.
Do I need to be home for Highgrove gopher service?
No. Rodent Guys technicians work exterior-only — most Highgrove appointments are completed with no one home. We need gate access if the yard is locked. Call 909-599-4711 to schedule.
