Registration is required for this workshop: https://center-for-agroecology.company.site/products/Non-Toxic-Gopher-Control-p815500609Gophers! Every backyard gardener’s nemesis. Join Thomas Wittman for this informative class on effective gopher control methods that are safe for humans and the environment.
Gophers and other vertebrate pests take a huge toll in agriculture as well as your own backyard; as much as 10 to 50% of crops can be lost to animal pests. Thomas Wittman has been working on this issue for over 35 years and has come up with innovative methods and tools to reduce crop damage by managing pest populations in several ways. The most effective lethal traps and techniques will be presented along with exclusion barriers, integrating pest predators, and crop rotation.
If there’s time, Thomas will answer questions about rats, deer, and squirrels. Towards the end of the class he will do a hands-on demonstration to identify gopher activity, find the run, and set a few traps (weather permitting).
