Kaput-D Pocket Gopher Bait. manufactured by Scimetrics, is an effective gopher bait that controls gophers with the help of a powerful active ingredient, Diphacinone.

It comprises tiny red grains that kill gophers on golf courses, lawns, rangeland, and other areas without crops. This will eliminate gophers as quickly as a week.

Kaput-D also has an antidote in case non-target animals accidentally eat the bait. This product, when applied right, will kill your gopher infestation in about 3-5 days.

Tools Needed

Kaput-D Pocket Gopher Bait can be applied by hand, in underground bait stations, or with a Kaput-D gopher big boy applicator.

How to Use

Gopher Bait Probing

  • Step 1: Observe the pocket gopher runways that have been made on the property and calculate the size of the area in square footage. Do this by measuring the treatment areas' length and width in feet and then multiplying them together (length x width = square footage). For acreage, take the square footage and divide it by one acre (square footage / 43,560 sq. ft. = acres). Wherever you see an open mound, that is their main runway. You can locate the main runway by using a rod or something similar to probe the mounds. Apply the bait at a rate of 6 to 8 lbs. per acre.
  • Step 2: Once the gopher mound has been identified, use a pointed, long metal probe to create a small opening by sticking the probe around the mound. Once the burrow has been penetrated and a deep opening has been created inside the burrow, pull out the metal probe.
  • Step 3: Using a bait applicator, a teaspoon, or a funnel, insert a half cup of product as far inside as possible inside the burrow. Then, close the opening with soil, being careful not to cover the bait.
  • Step 4: Repeat application if a fresh mound appears after 2 to 3 weeks.

Where to Use

This product is for the control of Pocket Gophers in and bordering crops (alfalfa, forage, hay, vegetables, and grains) in rangelands, orchards, and non-crop areas (forestry, plantations, golf courses, lawns, and other turf areas, level/ditch banks, nurseries, parks, and around agricultural buildings).

When to Use

Use Kaput-D Gopher Bait when you have discovered gopher activity. This can be indicated by seeing gophers themselves or the mounds they dig.

While the bait can be applied by hand or shaken out from a container, you can optionally order/use a bait applicator or dispenser to apply it to gopher mounds and runways.

Keith's Pro Tips"This product can be used, and should be used, in unison with the Kaput-D Big Boy Gopher Bait Applicator for easier application and to ensure the best possible bait placement. Simply fill the bait holder and open the lever. The lever opens a door at the tip of the applicator. The bait slides down the tube and into the burrow; it's that simple!"
Product DrawbacksSome gophers may like a different bait, which is why we also have gopher bait worms which you can use to try and bait Gophers.
