I have a gopher in my back yard, living under one of my sheds. Evidence of tunnels and poop, and I finally saw the rat basterd today. By the time I got my air gun, loaded it, and snuck down for a decent shot, he heard me and took off.

No doubt I can shoot him from the house, distance wise, but I have a picket fence about thirty yards from my home stretching across my yard. Shooting between pickets, is out of the question.

I've tried to trap him before, but frankly he's too big for my trap.

Before I plant up my garden full of yummies for ME, not him, any suggestions ?
