Martin's Gopher Bait 50, manufactured by CSI, is a specially treated grain that uses a fast-acting powerful bait made with strychnine alkaloid 0.50% to poison nuisance gophers in and around your yard. One pound of bait will treat between 1 to 8 acres, offering greater gopher control at a economic value.

This ready to use granular bait can be placed directly in active burrows or tunnels of pocket gophers. Formulated with the active ingredient Strychnine Alkaloid 0.50% to effectively get rid of pocket gophers and consists of special flavoring to attract this pest for a quick elimination.

Martin's Gopher Bait 50 is applied underneath the soil to ensure only gophers can access the bait and eat it. After the gophers ingest the bait, they will die within just a few short hours. Using Martin's Gopher Bait 50 will ensure that gophers are eliminated and no longer wreaking havoc on lawns, farms or ranches.

Tools Needed

To apply Martin's Gopher Bait 50 a metal rod is needed to find the gopher tunnels and a shovel is needed to remove dirt and place it back over the tunnel. A long handled spoon or bait applicator can be used to apply the bait.

This product cannot be applied with a mechanical burrow builder. 

How to Use

  • Step 1: Remove burrow plug from flat side of burrow fan or locate main runway by probing with a metal rod or wooden stick. Resistance on probe will decrease when you are in the main runway. 
  • Step 2: Apply 1 teaspoon of Martin's Gopher Bait 50 into burrow system, using a long-handled spoon if necessary. One pound of this product will treat 1-8 acres, depending upon number of burrow systems to be treated. 
  • Step 3: Cover up the tunnel back up with soil without disturbing it. Do not permit soil to cover bait. If new gopher activity is noticed, retreat according to the above directions.

Martin's Gopher Bait 50 should only be used in subterranean applications in rangelands, pastures, croplands, and non-crop areas.

Keith's Pro Tips"Before beginning your pocket gopher hunt, remember to first identify whether freshly dug mounds are pocket gopher mounds. Gopher mounds look different from mole mounds. Gopher mounds are semi-circle or crescent-shaped and can be found open in the daytime. Mole mounds look like a perfect round circle of dirt."

Martin's Gopher Bait 50
This product works great. I use a 30" piece of #8 rebar to probe for tunnels near the mounds. I've used this rebar so much now that one end has worn to a dull rounded point. The only minor drawback to this order was the "slow boat to China" free shipping.

Great product !!!
We have prary dogs in the desert and they take a toll on our property. They dig and tunnel all over. I take a little peanut butter on a stick and dip in the bait and put it at the entrance of their tunnel. Works well.

  4. Q:I bought this to kill gophers and squirrels invading my attic. Neither animal will eat the product. Is this normal?
    7/8/23
    A:Yes, since Martin's Gopher Bait 50 (Strychnine) is only labeled to control pocket gophers and not squirrels. It cannot be used in attics so this could be another reason it is not working. Gophers are not commonly found in attics and are often underground dwelling animals, but if you have visible proof or pictures of their feces/damages then reach out to our customer service team. For squirrel control, check out our diy guide. https://www.solutionsstores.com/squirrel-control. 800-479-6583

  5. Q:Can I just put this product in the hole that is open for entrance or e it for the groundhogs. Hole is about 10 inches in diameter??
    6/12/23
    A:Martin's Gopher Bait 50 (Strychnine) only controls pocket gophers, which is a separate pest from groundhogs (if this is the pest you are facing then this product will not work). If you put Martin's Gopher Bait 50 (Strychnine) at the entrance of the pocket gophers tunnel system then there is the risk that the pest will just avoid this area or pets/wildlife will be exposed. You will need to place in the middle of the burrow system to increase contact probability of pest. This product is toxic to fish, birds, and other wildlife. Do not allow bait to be exposed on soil surface. https://www.solutionsstores.com/woodchuck-control
