Hey Folks!

I own a Gopher X smoke machine, which had very good advertisement and I heard some great tales of success from other people. Unfortunately I have had very poor success with it, maybe 30% or less. And some of the other professionals I know around here also say it doesn't work.

Does anyone have some tricks or advice of how I can effectively use this machine? Generally I use traps but for large projects I would like to use this machine if I can get good results with it, which so far has not been the case for me.

Need to look at the soil your using it on. Looser soils means your gas is going to escape.

Strychnine laced oats.
You might need a pesticide license to buy and use them, depends on your State. Very effective if you use them properly.

If you are on Facebook try to get into some of the pest/wildlife control groups and look in the archives. I remember some discussion on them. Dalton Stephenson had one. He used to be on the adc forum, but not in a while.
