Gophers-A Silent Predator

We have had an invasion of gophers again with winter approaching they can kill our trees/plants and wreak havoc on the irrigation system. My wife has had trouble trapping them and once they bury the trap it is tougher to trick them. So as a surefire eradication I had her open the holes up and put the water hose in each one for 10-15 minutes. The water shows up in many unexpected places. One gopher popped out soaking wet gasping about 20 feet away. The rest are toast and the open holes are now inactive.
 
It's funny you mentioned dogs because I have seen our neighbors giant schnauzer swallow three gophers whole and once we watched him swallow a grey squirrel.
