How can I tell if gophers are active on my property?

One of the most common signs of gopher activity is the appearance of fresh soil mounds in lawns, gardens, or landscaped areas. These mounds form as gophers dig underground tunnels while searching for roots and plants to feed on.
Properties with irrigated lawns, gardens, and landscaped plants provide a steady food source for gophers. The roots of grass, shrubs, and ornamental plants can attract these burrowing rodents to yards where soil conditions allow them to dig tunnel systems.
Gophers feed on plant roots and create extensive underground tunnels that may damage lawns, gardens, and irrigation systems. Their digging activity can also create uneven ground surfaces and disrupt landscaping features around a property.
In Southern California’s mild climate, gophers can remain active throughout the year. Their activity may become more noticeable during periods when soil is easier to dig and when landscaped plants provide consistent food sources.
Lawns, vegetable gardens, flower beds, and landscaped areas with irrigation are often the most vulnerable to gopher activity. These environments provide both soft soil for tunneling and plant roots that gophers rely on for food.
