Pocket Gophers and Drain Field

[thcri]

I was gone for a couple of days and when I return the stupid gophers invaded my back yard. Looks like most of their holes are in line with the drain field. Is there of any concern I should be worrying or not to worry?

Gophers are in the rodent family. Rats, mice and the like need to gnaw on things to keep there front teeth from growing to much. So if you got something down there that you dont want chewed up get rid of them.

That brings up a question (maybe it has been covered here, but I haven't found it). What works to get rid of them? Do these electronic gadgets that stick in the ground work?
