This episode starts off with my best Steve Irwin impersonation and rolls into the pros and cons of pocket gophers. My brother David and I reminisce about how our childhood summers were spent gopher trapping. We talk about the supplies needed, the different types of gopher traps we used, and the methods to find the gopher’s hole….among other things. 

Supplies:

-trap

-stake

-board/cover (old discs off of a cultivator work pretty good)

-Shovel (we found the spade works best)

-mode of transportation
