| The Gophinator is a sixty
gallon Anhydrous ammonia tank designed with 50 feet of hose and a
specially built wand. The wand is equipped with a spring loaded
valve that for safety reasons has to be held open when in use. On
the end of the wand is a hose to be placed in the hole or a probe can be
installed if you are after pocket gophers.
The purpose of this unit is to eradicate
rodents such as gophers, ground squirrels, rats, prairie dogs, ground
hogs, etc. This is done by placing the end of the wand into the
burrow of the rodent and injecting the NH3 down the hole. It only
takes about 5 seconds per hole, and one tank full can do up to 500 holes.
The unit is designed to be loaded in the
back of a pick-up truck, on a trailer, or whatever the operator chooses
by either a forklift or a front end loader. The unit also comes
equipped with rubber gloves and safety goggles.
A wheel kit is also available for this
unit. It allows to be towed behind a four-wheeler or any
ATV.
