Gophers Tearing Up Your Yard?
In Calgary, “gophers” can mean pocket gophers, which push up soil mounds, or Richardson’s ground squirrels, which leave open holes. Both live mostly underground, so the damage often shows up before the animals do.
It may be time for professional gopher control if you see:
- Fresh soil mounds popping up across the lawn
- New burrow holes around garden beds and landscaping
- Soft, uneven, or sinking ground from tunnels
- Chewed grass, roots, bulbs, or garden plants
- Plants that suddenly wilt or vanish
- Gophers active around gardens or flower beds
- Burrows forming beside patios or walkways
- Mounds coming back after you rake them flat
- Activity spreading across more and more of the yard

Why Choose We Clean Pest Control for Gopher Control?
Targeted Gopher Control
We target active burrows, fresh mounds, travel routes, and damaged areas of the yard instead of treating the whole lawn blindly.
Clear Inspection and Explanation
You get a clear look at where the activity is, the control plan we recommend, and practical steps that help keep gopher problems from coming back.
Local Calgary Service
From established neighbourhoods to newer communities across Calgary and nearby towns, our local gopher control team is ready to help.
Support for All Property Types
We handle gophers at Calgary homes, commercial properties, landscaped grounds, rental properties, and multi-unit residential developments.
How We Handle Gophers
Step 1 – Inspection
Your technician inspects the property for fresh mounds, active burrows, tunnel patterns, plant damage, and the areas where gophers are feeding or travelling. We check lawns, gardens, flower beds, landscaping, fence lines, patios, walkways, and anywhere else you have noticed activity.
Step 2 – Custom Treatment Plan
Next, we build a plan based on how much activity there is, the size of the property, where the burrows are, your landscaping, and the areas most at risk. We also explain what to expect before and after service.
Step 3 – Targeted Treatment
Control measures are aimed directly at active burrow systems and the areas showing current activity. The exact approach depends on conditions on the property, how widespread the problem is, and how easy the affected areas are to reach.
Step 4 – Prevention & Follow-Up
Afterward, you get practical advice on watching for fresh mounds, spotting new activity early, protecting vulnerable plants and landscaping, and reducing the conditions that bring gophers back. If activity is widespread or continues after the first visit, we may recommend a follow-up treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why are gophers a problem in Calgary yards?
Gophers dig tunnels and push up soil mounds that ruin lawns, gardens, flower beds, and landscaping. Their burrowing leaves the ground uneven, makes mowing difficult, damages plant roots, and creates tripping hazards. The longer it goes on, the more expensive it becomes to repair lawns, walkways, patios, and gardens.
When should I call a gopher exterminator in Calgary?
Call as soon as you notice fresh soil mounds, new tunnels, damaged plants, sinking ground, or repeated digging in your yard. Treating early in the spring is usually easier and cheaper than waiting until the tunnel system has spread.
How do I know if I have gophers in my yard?
Look for crescent- or fan-shaped soil mounds, raised tunnels, damaged roots, wilting plants, open holes in the lawn, and uneven ground. If new mounds keep showing up, the gophers are still active and the yard should be inspected.
Can gophers damage lawns and gardens?
Yes. Gophers eat roots, bulbs, and other underground plant parts, which damages grass, vegetables, flowers, shrubs, and ornamental plants. Their tunnels also loosen the soil and leave mounds that make the yard look messy and harder to keep up.
How much does gopher control cost in Calgary?
Pricing for gopher control in Calgary depends on the size of the property, the number of active tunnels, how widespread the problem is, how easy the area is to reach, and whether follow-up monitoring is needed. A small yard caught early usually costs less than a large property with many burrows. Contact We Clean Pest Control for a consultation and the most cost-effective option.
How does professional gopher control work?
It starts with an inspection of the property to find active burrows, soil mounds, tunnel patterns, and damage. A targeted control plan is then used to reduce activity and protect your lawn or garden. We also give you recommendations to help keep gopher problems from returning.
Is gopher control safe for pets and children?
Safety depends on the method used and the layout of your yard. We explain any precautions before service and give you clear guidance to keep children, pets, and outdoor areas protected during and after treatment.
How do I book gopher control in Calgary?
Call We Clean Pest Control or send a consultation request online. Let us know where you are seeing mounds, how long it has been going on, how big the affected area is, and whether the damage is near gardens, lawns, patios, walkways, or buildings.
