Recommended application rates of 1 to 2 pounds per acre (1.1 to 2.2 kg/ha) of 0.3 to 0.5% strychnine alkaloid grain should provide an 85% to 95% reduction in the gopher population (Table 1 demonstrates how to calculate bait delivery rates).The burrows should be spaced at 20- to 25-foot (6- to 8-m) intervals.ottaâs pocket gophers are 5 inches to about 13 1/2 inches (13 to 34 cm) long. Their color varies from almost white to black. Geomys have two grooves on each upper incisor and large forefeet and claws.
