into? That would protect my birds.
That sounds like a good idea. You might try the pinch traps for
gophers with a bait that take some work to get (to make sure the trap
is triggered), and put it inside a piece of 4" sewer pipe -- it's
cheap, durable, yet easy to cut (try a heavy old serrated knife, the
kind they advertise as being able to cut frozen stuff and tin cans).

I'm going to have to look in to gopher traps...
The rats have dug a series of tunnels under the rocks in the dog kennel.
:-( I can't really get to them without tearing out the rocks and they
will just all run away.
I could put gopher traps at the entrances of the burrows! eg I never
thought of that.
Thanks! :-)
Those are also less likely to catch pigeons if I choose to use them out
in the open.
