I have to thank PestLab and my neighbor for this one! I was complaining to her about the gophers destroying my yard and the new mounds that seemed to appear every morning. She told me her little “secret” was these PestLab pouches.

I gave them a try, placed them around the areas where the gophers were most active, and after a while I started noticing fewer fresh mounds and much less digging.

My only regret is not asking my neighbor sooner!

I'll admit I wasn't convinced these would do much because our gopher problem had gotten pretty bad. We had mounds appearing across the lawn and around the garden.

I placed several pouches near the newest mounds and throughout the affected area. The first few days weren't dramatically different, but after a while we started seeing much less fresh activity.

I'm glad I gave them time instead of giving up after a few days.

The gophers had been digging around the far end of our property for a while, but we mostly ignored them.

That changed when they reached my wife's flower beds.

She had spent months planting and maintaining everything, and suddenly we had fresh gopher mounds right beside the plants and signs of damage around the roots.

That was the end of ignoring them.

We didn't want to use poison, and neither of us wanted to deal with killing or removing trapped gophers.

We decided to try PestLab first.

I placed the pouches around the flower beds, along the affected section of lawn, and near the areas where fresh gopher mounds were appearing.

We continued checking the yard over the following days and weeks.

Gradually, we started seeing fewer signs of gophers around the flower beds. The fresh mounds slowed down, and most importantly, we weren't finding new plant damage like before.

My wife is happy with her garden again, which means I'm definitely happy with the purchase.

I have been growing vegetables in my backyard for years, and I've dealt with bugs, rabbits, and even deer. But gophers were by far the most frustrating problem I've had.

It started with one dirt mound near the back of the garden. I cleaned it up and didn't think much about it. A few days later there were two more. Then some of my plants started wilting even though I was watering them regularly.

That's when I realized the gophers were tunneling underneath my garden and damaging the roots.

I tried filling the holes, but the gophers just seemed to move somewhere else. Every morning I was walking outside wondering what they had destroyed overnight.

I eventually ordered the PestLab Gopher Repellent Pouches because I wanted to try something that didn't involve poison or traps. I placed them around the garden and concentrated them near the areas where I kept finding fresh gopher activity.

I didn't notice a huge difference overnight, but I kept them in place. Over the following couple of weeks, the fresh mounds became less frequent and I wasn't finding the same amount of new damage.

For the first time in weeks, my garden wasn't being torn up by gophers every few days.

I'm keeping these around for the rest of the season.

Our backyard had become a favorite spot for gophers, especially around the garden and shrubs. I placed several PestLab pouches around those areas and kept them spread throughout the problem zone. Over time, we started seeing fewer gophers and less fresh digging. Very simple product and easy to maintain.

For weeks I felt like I was playing a game with the gophers. I'd flatten one mound and another would appear somewhere else. I spread the PestLab pouches around the sections of the lawn where the gophers were most active. We're now seeing considerably less activity, and I'm not waking up to new piles of dirt every morning.

We had gophers tearing up one side of our backyard, and I really didn't want to start digging around looking for tunnels and setting traps. These were much simpler. I placed the pouches around the fresh gopher mounds and garden. The activity gradually decreased, and we're seeing far fewer new mounds now.

The gophers were doing more damage underground than I realized. Some of my vegetables started wilting, and fresh dirt mounds kept appearing around the garden. I placed these pouches around the perimeter and near the areas with the most gopher activity. Since then, we've noticed much less digging and fewer damaged plants.

Our gopher problem was getting ridiculous. We had tunnels through the lawn and plants getting damaged around the roots. I placed these pouches around the garden and near the newest gopher mounds. It took a little time, but we gradually started seeing fewer signs of gophers. Really easy to use compared with traps.

I was constantly dealing with gophers in my backyard. I'd clean up one mound and find another somewhere else the next morning. I put several PestLab pouches around the active areas and near my landscaping. After a couple of weeks, the gopher activity had noticeably slowed down. I'm definitely keeping these around.

Every morning I was finding another fresh mound somewhere in the lawn. I'd flatten them out, and a few days later there would be more. I placed the PestLab pouches around the areas with the freshest activity and near my garden. It wasn't instant, but after using them consistently I started noticing fewer new mounds. My yard finally isn't looking like a construction site every morning.

I wish I had taken a picture because I couldn't believe it. I looked out my kitchen window one afternoon and there was a groundhog sitting beside my raised beds eating my plants.

I'd spent months growing that garden.

Every time I thought we'd scared him away, he'd show up again a day or two later.

A neighbor mentioned scent repellents, so I found PestLab and ordered the pouches. I put them around the raised beds, beside the fence, and close to the areas where we had seen him traveling.

It took a little patience, but the difference became noticeable. We went from seeing him almost daily to rarely seeing activity around the garden, and I haven't noticed the same level of fresh damage.

For me, the biggest advantage is how easy they are. Put them where you need them and check them periodically. That's it.

I'm ordering another pack for the other side of our property.

We noticed a pretty large hole next to our backyard shed and eventually realized a groundhog had moved in. Then it started visiting our garden.

I tried filling areas back in, blocking things off, and making noise whenever I saw it. It always seemed to come back.

I bought these because I wanted to try something simple before calling someone to remove it. I put several pouches around the shed, near the garden, and along the fence line.

For the first few days I wasn't sure anything was happening. Then we started noticing less activity. I wasn't seeing the groundhog wandering around the yard every afternoon anymore, and the garden wasn't getting hit like before.

What I like most is that there's really nothing to maintain besides checking the pouches. No trap to monitor and no poison.

I'll definitely keep some around.

I have had a vegetable garden behind my house for probably 12 years, and this was the first year I had a serious groundhog problem.

At first, I thought rabbits were eating everything. Then one morning I looked outside and there was a huge groundhog sitting right in the middle of my garden eating like he owned the place.

Tomato plants, lettuce, beans—you name it. I would fix things and a few days later find more damage.

I didn't want poison around my yard, and trapping sounded like another headache, so I ordered the PestLab pouches. I placed them around the garden and near the side of the shed where I had seen the groundhog disappear.

I wasn't expecting an instant miracle, but over the following days we started seeing him less and less. More importantly, I stopped waking up to newly damaged plants every morning.

Very simple product, but so far I'm extremely pleased.

I originally thought rabbits were damaging my plants until my husband spotted a groundhog near the flower beds. We ordered these and placed them around the landscaping and along that side of the yard. After using them for a while, we noticed fewer signs of activity and much less damage to the plants. I'll definitely continue using them.

I wasn't sure a pouch was going to make much difference because this groundhog had gotten very comfortable in our yard. I placed them around the garden, fence line, and the area where we usually saw it. Nothing dramatic happened the first day, but over time we started seeing it less and less. I'm glad I gave them some time to work.

We discovered a groundhog had been spending a lot of time around the shed at the back of our property. There was digging nearby and it kept crossing the lawn to get to our plants. We placed these around the shed and garden instead of trying a trap. The activity gradually decreased, and we're no longer seeing it in the yard every day.

This groundhog apparently loved my lettuce as much as I did. 😂 I would go outside and find leaves missing and plants knocked over. I put several PestLab pouches around the vegetable garden and along the fence. After using them consistently, I started seeing less activity and my plants finally got a chance to grow. Really simple product to use.

We tried filling in areas where a groundhog had been digging, but it seemed pointless because we'd find new activity a few days later. I decided to try PestLab and put the pouches around the problem areas and garden. It wasn't an overnight change, but eventually we weren't seeing fresh digging nearly as often. I'm planning to keep using them through the season.

My biggest concern was finding something I could use without putting poison around the backyard. We have two dogs that are outside all the time. I placed these pouches where the groundhog had been coming through and kept them out of reach of the dogs. We've definitely noticed less groundhog activity around that part of the yard.

I spent a lot of time getting my raised vegetable beds ready, only to have a groundhog discover them. Every morning it seemed like something else had been eaten. I placed these pouches around the outside of the beds and near the fence. The activity didn't disappear immediately, but over the next couple of weeks I noticed a big reduction in new damage.

A groundhog had been hanging around underneath our shed and constantly wandering into the yard. I really didn't want to trap it, so these seemed worth trying. I put the pouches around the shed and the areas where we saw the most activity. We still kept an eye on everything, but the groundhog gradually stopped showing up as often. Very easy and no mess.

I kept finding vegetables eaten and plants damaged, but I wasn't sure what was doing it until I finally saw a groundhog running out of the garden. I ordered these and placed them around my raised beds and along the path where I saw it coming in. After a while, I noticed fewer visits and much less new damage. So far, I'm very happy with them.

We had a groundhog showing up almost every afternoon and digging around the back of our shed. I didn't want to use poison or deal with a trap, so I decided to try these pouches. I placed several near the shed, along the fence, and around my garden. It took a little time, but we gradually started seeing much less activity. The best part is how simple they are to use.

I never thought I'd write a review about a pest product, but PestLab deserves it. We were battling fleas for months. My poor cats were constantly scratching, and no shampoo or spray made a difference. I was vacuuming every day and still getting bitten myself. I plugged in four of these devices around the house, and within a few days, the itching stopped, for all of us! Two weeks in, not a flea in sight. I even canceled my pest control appointment. Just ordered a 6-pack for my sister’s house too.
