82004693 Gopher Control Bait - 1 Lb Strychnine Treated Grain Bait

Martin's Gopher Bait 50 is a strychnine-treated grain bait (0.5% Strychnine Alkaloid) designed for fast, effective pocket gopher control in rangelands, pastures, croplands, and fields. This ready-to-use bait is applied directly into active gopher burrows, where gophers die within a few hours of ingesting it. Key Features: Fast-Acting Formula – Gophers die within a few hours of ingesting the bait. Subsoil Application Only – Designed to be placed directly underground in burrow systems, keeping bait away from surface-level exposure. Large Coverage Area – 1 lb of bait treats 1 to 8 acres, depending on burrow density. Special Attractant Flavoring – Formulated to attract gophers specifically for quick, targeted elimination. Right-Sized for Smaller Areas – 1 lb size is a practical option for homeowners or smaller properties with limited gopher activity. Restricted Use in Some States – Not for sale in several states; check local regulations before purchase. Important Safety Note: This product is highly toxic and must be kept away from pets, children, and non-target wildlife. Do not apply above ground. Keep pets and people out of the treatment area during application, and never allow bait to be exposed on the soil surface. Directions for Use: Locate the main gopher runway by probing with a metal rod or wooden stick. Insert 1 teaspoon to 1 tablespoon of bait into the burrow system using a long-handled spoon, then close the tunnel with soil without covering the bait itself. Retreat if new gopher activity is noticed. Ideal For: Homeowners, farmers, and ranchers needing an effective, subsoil-applied solution for controlling pocket gopher populations on lawns, gardens, or smaller properties.
