Underground Exterminator Pest Control Reusable Exhaust Pipe Attachment- Exterminates Gophers, Moles, Skunks, Voles and All Outdoor Underground Pests Humanely with Exhaust from Cars

We have had a growing pocket gopher problem for the last 2 years on our 5 acre property. Poison baits were ineffective in keeping up with the rapid increase in the population. After purchasing the Underground Exterminator, I am finally turning the tide and depleting the population of gophers. I attached the hose to a small Toyota pickup and used a 3/4 inch garden hose to increase the volume of gasses into the hole. The gas is very effective in about a 20 yard radius. I am not sure if it is effective out to the 275' claimed by the product information, but it could be. Since all the evidence is underground, it is hard to tell. I found I was more effective after experimenting with techniques of hose placement. After locating a gopher run underground, I dug a small opening and cleared the dirt in as many directions as I could find tunnels. I then used an 18 inch section of an old hose and inserted it into the run to be sure the tunnels were clear at least that far. Once I identified the tunnel pointing to the most activity, I inserted the hose in that direction and covered the opening around the hose with a small bucket or rag. I ran the engine at idle for 20-30 minutes. I then either reversed the direction of the hose or moved to the next location. Follow up is critical to be sure you get the survivors. Sometimes I treated in the same area 2-4 times before eliminating the activity in that location. The attachment to the exhaust is funnel shaped and takes the heat of the exhaust pipe well without melting or losing shape. While I doubt I will eliminate the problem, I believe the product is the most effective method for controlling large areas that are heavily infested. At least now I feel I can manage the problem.

Works great when everything else failed (1k later) Except the clamp provided will not hold it on your tail pipe you'll have to go to Hardware store And find one the fits your Cars size pipe correctly

Let me start by saying I have farmed and ranched for many years and do my own repairs on property and equipment so I KNOW how to make something work. I ordered this product thinking it would work on the exhaust of ONE of my vehicles. Here are the vehicles this product will not connect to, Well it connects but you do NOT get a good seal on it 2003 Chevy Silveraldo 3/4 ton - This will NOT fit the exhaust at all 2008 - Dodge caravan - small section will not go all the way over the slanted exhaust so when you clamp it down it folds over and exhaust leaks. 2003 - Kubota BX 23 compact tractor - Will not hook to this one either. 2007 - Impala - have yet to try on this one. Its the wife's car so not allowed to just go and use it.(UPDATE...Did not work here either. Going for 1 Star So as you can see based on the info above I have to use the caravan because it is the only one that I can sorta get it hooked to. I have been trying for several days to get the gophers in the same location for several days and they keep coming back. I am thinking it may be because I can not get a good seal. I will get this to seal once I build some reducers to use with it but the product does not advertise itself as needing added hardware to work properly. Edited....it does NOT work on the 2007 Impala either...so out of my 4 motorized items it fits NONE...let me know what it DOES fit I can NOT recommend this to anyone based on how it has performed for me.

I usually don’t read other reviews before writing my own—I don’t want to bias my own review. But i accidentally got pulled in to a few while looking for the ‘review this product’ button. I believe the naysayers are possibly using this tool incorrectly… My own experience has been great. I’ve used the spring traps before and they work for one mole. But by the time you see trails and mounds, you don’t have one mole, you have a community. For one trial there could be 8-20 moles, so a spring trap kill is only one battle in a long war. This exhaust tool, for me, worked in one try. I saw no more trails or mounds for 3 years. My concern for the people that this has not worked for is that they either are using it for the wrong critters or they didn’t read the directions thoroughly and a little user error has occurred. Here are a couple notes I would share: —this is not for woodchucks. A woodchuck or groundhog is the only North American marmot. They are as big as a dog, are very quick for their shape/size and are hard to trap because they are so smart. This product could handle them but I think their tunnels are too big and too intelligently created for it to get them efficiently. —you have to have a good seal on your muffler for this to work. It comes with the ring clamp but you may have to adjust how you attach it to your specific car muffler or even borrow a friend’s vehicle that fits it better. —you also have to be careful with how you insert the hose in the ground. If the exhaust is blocked by dirt or whatever, it will not work. CAREFULLY insert it. I had to get a garden trowel and basically clean out the mound of loose dirt so that I could see the trail hole and then put the hose in. Then I packed dirt around the hose to seal the opening. —the directions say to do this at night. Moles at least are active during the day—usually morning from my experience. If you do this at night, they are asleep in their burrows and simply do not know anything is wrong when the exhaust takes them instead of escaping. Also, at night, you are able to see if there are any leaks from the muffler, hose, or trails/mounds in the light of headlights or flashlights. If there are leaks, fix them and it makes the system work better. If a trial or mound has exhaust coming out, gently tamp the ground to seal it up. I think this is an excellent tool and I recommend it to all my friends who’ve mentioned mole issues. I would like to also add that I have only used it for moles as we don’t really have a gopher problem in my area.
