Not only have we been pulling weeds and spreading mulch but Dad is also taking care of the gopher situation. Gopher hills kept rising, as did Dad's frustration. We probed for their tunnels around the hills and our first attempt was poison pellets. After we finished the last part, we walked back to where we started and there was already a fresh hole. Today we tried EZ set traps. Dad is a thorough person and watched some YouTube videos on it. We set them out and just 2 hours later we already caught one. Dad thinks there are more and predicts we will catch two more by tomorrow. He is so excited. Even though it caused Dad grief, the minute C saw it dead, her compassionate side came out. "Oh but he's so cute!" Dad just walked away silently reassuring himself, "best investment ever".
