Gopher

The Gopher  Animal, moves enormous amounts of soil every year, and therefore help to aerate the soil. This is especially important when soil has been compacted by grazing livestock or agricultural machinery.

What Time of Day Are Gophers Most Active? Like many rodents, gophers seem to prefer twilight and evening hours. However, unlike other rodents, gophers have no real qualms about burrowing during the day. Daytime activity is especially common during the spring when gophers can create up to three mounds per day!  Bait from food helps, Keep them in a safe distance from crops.
