Obviously poisons and traps can kill these buggers, but when you kill one, more than likely about 50 of his closest friends are not far behind.

Preventitive measures are the way to go here, the tall grass is one thing that gophers absolutely hate, but I also have used wire cloth in the past.

I bought some 4 x 4 galvanized (check it out: link removed pending Bob Lusk approval)and that was very effective in keeping gophers, and just about any other predator/unwanted nuisance from doing any harm in areas that you will not allow them.
