Gophers and squirrels are excellent excavators, displacing large qualities of dirt in short order. And as such pose unique problems for commercial property owners and estate managers.

Gophers destroy lawns and landscape adding unnecessary cost to landscape budgets and management costs. And mar the carefully crafted appearance of your property. Squirrels too, by their burrow excavation, accelerate erosion issues, moving them from a nuisance pest to a high priority pest. Hillsides peppered with squirrel burrows quickly become a danger of landslides when paired with the increasingly wet weather of recent California winters. Burrows act as interconnected network of channels that increase the penetration of moisture into the hillside. The reduced runoff saturates the embankment making it a higher risk for collapse.

Embankment with Crib Wall

Interlocking crib walls are especially susceptible to squirrel damage as they excavate burrows under-mining the stability of the structure and if left unchecked over time the results can be catastrophic.
