Calgary Prairie Dog Removal

Prairie dogs, also known as gophers, are a type of rodent which create burrows and tunnels. They easily disrupt any grounded-property, and cause extensive damage. Their tunnel systems weaken soil, damage grass and plant life, and they leave behind large mounds which rapidly spreads across your yard.

Ignoring a few minor holes rapidly turns into unnecessary property damage. As burrows grow, vital foundations diminish, causing ground instability and you lose the appearance and usability of outdoor areas. Prairie dogs drastically increase activity when left untreated.
