I recently moved to Oregon and have what I thought were gophers, but they don't seem to both the plants , just make tunnels everywhere. I just bought some of those worms and they are a poison. You are suppose to figure out which tunnels they are actively using and then drop a worm down into the tunnel. My problem is I can't seem to find out which tunnels are active. I have followed the instructions to fine the tunnel with a dowel and then cover the hole and come back in 72 hrs. to see if they have clogged up the hole again showing it is active but that hasn't happened to any of my holes so I haven't gotten the chance to use my worms yet. I am wondering if mine are
gophers being they don't seem to bother the plants. I have berry vines and close to 50 rose bushes and none have been bothered.
