GopherHawk Gopher and Mole Single Trap 20" x 1.5" — Above-Ground, Stainless Steel Strap

The GopherHawk Single Trap (1 GH-TRP) is a professional-grade above-ground gopher and mole trap engineered for a fast, humane capture without digging, bait, or poison.

Designed, engineered, and assembled in the USA, the GopherHawk Single Trap provides gardeners, landscapers, and property owners with a discreet, no-dig solution to subterranean rodent problems. This unit uses a stainless steel strap system to deliver a quick kill and features an above-ground catch indicator so you can confirm success without disturbing the soil. The trap ships alone — it does not include the wedge & probe tool — and measures 20 inches by 1.5 inches, making it compact enough for tight tunnels while still offering professional performance.

How does the GopherHawk Single Trap stop gophers and moles without digging?

The design fits into active runs from the surface and secures the animal with a rapid-action capture mechanism. Because it installs above ground and shows a visible indicator when tripped, you avoid repeated excavation and handling of pests.

• Above-ground catch indicator reveals successful captures without soil disturbance
• No need to excavate long tunnel sections to set or check the device
• Streamlined 20" x 1.5" profile fits common run sizes and minimizes visible disruption

Is the trap safe, sturdy, and reusable for repeated rodent control?

Yes — the GopherHawk Single Trap is built with professional materials for repeated use. Its stainless steel strap components resist corrosion and maintain tension over many cycles, while the overall construction is robust enough for field use year after year.

• Stainless steel straps for corrosion resistance and reliable performance
• Professional-grade construction for repeated deployments
• Easy-to-clean exterior promotes simple maintenance between uses

Do I need bait, poison, or other accessories to make it work?

No baiting or poison is required with this trapping method; the unit relies on placement in active runs to intercept animals. Note that the package contains only the Single Trap; the wedge & probe accessory is sold separately for easier placement if you don’t want to open tunnels manually.

• Works without bait or chemical attractants
• Reduces chemical hazards near gardens and pets
• Wedge & probe tool not included — available separately for no-dig placement

How do I check and dispose of captured pests safely?

The trap’s above-ground indicator lets you confirm a catch before approaching, so you can handle disposal with minimal contact. After confirming, follow local regulations for carcass disposal and clean the trap for reuse; protective gloves and standard sanitation are recommended.

• Indicator shows captures without exposing soil or the animal
• Simple removal and cleaning steps reduce handling time
• Follow local guidelines for disposal and sanitation

Who this is for: The GopherHawk Single Trap is intended for homeowners, professional landscapers, and agricultural users who want an effective, low-profile way to manage gophers and moles without using poisons or extensive excavation. It suits anyone seeking a durable, reusable, and humane-focused approach to subterranean rodent control, provided they understand the product ships without the wedge & probe placement tool.
