    When I have some gophers that need killin this is how I get r done.

    Items required:
    4 wheeler
    bungee cord
    old rag
    canister vacuum extensions
    garden hose splitter
    duct tape (of course)
    garden hose
    gopher that needs killin

    Once the setup is complete I run on idle for 10 minutes, pull hose and keep hole covered.

    **Note** Some of you are probably thinking that a rag on the muffler will catch on fire. Disclaimer: Mine does not get that hot, yours might. Use something else that is non flammable. I also only use mine right by the house and in the garden where there are water hoses within a few steps ready to go.

    I would rather shoot them to have some fun. Since that does not work out, kill em all and let the worms sort em out.

    Where I used to live we had problems with badgers. Game and Fish department gave us some gas bombs that could be buried in the badger's burrow and ignited with a fuse routed above the ground. When they burned, they gave off copious amounts of CO which is the same idea you're using on the gophers with the ATV.

    Trick was to catch them when they were in the burrows because they'd dig in search of food, usually ground squirrels and yes, gophers. Once they got what they were after, they'd move along and it was too late.
