Say goodbye to pesky gophers with our Tunnel Fill! 

No poisons or traps. 

Simply add water to Tunnel Fill and watch it expand, deterring rodents from returning to your property! Tunnel FILL seals the holes with natural ingredients and no special license required - it's biodegradable, non-toxic and safe for your family and pets! Gain peace of mind, with the Tunnel Fill and Tunnel Plug Combo.

Tunnel Fill is designed to effectively prevent landscape or yard damage caused by burrowing rodents. When applied, Tunnel Fill rapidly expands and forms a sticky mixture like applesauce, that is further reinforced by the Tunnel Plug. Natural spices used in the formulation repel rodents, making sure they stay away from treated areas.

One Tunnel Fill tube fills up to 50 ln ft. of Gopher Tunnels after water is added! 

Tunnel Fill can be used with any burrow including gophers, moles, squirrels, ground hogs, woodchucks, voles, skunks, badgers, rabbits, and more!

Ingredients

Coco coir, natural spices and potassium polyacrylate polymers.

Instructions

How to use Tunnel Fill:
Find the rodent's burrow and pour a handful of Tunnel Fill down the hole. Use your hose to flush water down starting on high pressure for one minute then medium pressure for two minutes. Go to the other end of the tunnel and repeat. Tunnel Fill will expand to completely fill a tunnel as it absorbs the water. Please wait after you add water for the product to fully expand!

1. Place Tunnel Fill on the entrance hole or in a container.
2. Slowly add water and mix well.
3. Plant directly on top of the tunnel plug!

How much do I need?
There are lots of variables to this including how extensive the tunnels are, the target and the quality of your water. Higher quality water allows more absorption so lower quality water will require more product.

An average gopher tunnel system in Southern California where our product was tested took about 1/2 of our small containers to fill one system. A system is several mounds, feed holes, nests, food storage areas etc.

We would recommend buying two pounds for most small areas You can always buy more product if needed but this is enough to do a few systems with some product left over in case of a second application or future gopher activity. If you have a large property a small property with a large number of tunnel systems 4- 5 pounds may be a good starting point. Again, you can always purchase more if needed. Farms, parks, golf courses and other large area facilities may consider 50 pound purchases most economical.

Pest control companies wishing to add this product to their available services would probably start with 50 pounds. This will fill 40-100 systems depending on water quality, how big the systems are, etc.

Good for small garden holes, if a bit pricey

I had some pretty large holes but wanted to try this product anyway,(understanding that I'd have to do more work after) and it works as advertised. Expands quite a bit and was easy to flush down the hole. I figured I will use this to deter them (Fill your house with dirt and garlic smell, you'll leave), then come back and compact it down and throw some old pavers on top. So far they're not back to those spots, but its been only a week or so.
If you're filling a hole, consider: (1)are you planting anything there? If so, a soil replacement like this may definitely be worth the price hike.
If you're not planting anything there (So, you don't care about maintaining soil composition), you can probably opt for a few cheap bags of pea gravel, quickcrete, maybe sand, etc. (If you refill with normal dirt they will just dig it back up)
(2)How much volume do you have to fill?
This product (In this quantity) seems especially good for small rodent holes in an area where there needs to be good soil (lawn/garden). (My definition of small hole would be <3in across and <12in deep).
If your holes are larger or you have tons, I'd advise the large bag, and/or looking for another solution, like beefing up your garden's fencing.
A bit of a long-winded review, but I figure some day there will be at least 1 person wondering the same things I was before I bought this, so now they'll have some reference.
Happy gardening everyone!

Waste of money

This stuff won’t do a damn thing. Totally waste of money and time.

Tunnel Fill

Appears to work but the round disk size can be too large for small tunnel. Used in past and fill was more like small pellets vs large disk.

Didn’t work well

Probably needed more, one tube was not enough. By the time I ordered and received a full bag the gophers blocked the entry and are still at it. To be continued.
