Experimental studies on poisoning pocket gophers

Milton A. Miller

Hilgardia, 1953, vol. 22, issue 4

Abstract: Field and laboratory tests on poisoning the Sacramento Valley pocket gopher (Thomomys bottae navus Merriam) are here reported. Nine poisons (including common and newly discovered rodenticides) and many kinds of bait materials were evaluated, graded dosages of the best poisons were bioassayed, and the effects of season of year, lures, and refrigeration on bait performance were tested.
