  • Method and apparatus for exterminating gophers and other burrowing pests
    Patent number: 7249437
    Abstract: An agent delivery system for eradicating rodents in an underground system of tunnels has a first chamber containing a first agent for delivery, a second chamber containing a second agent for delivery, a powered airflow device fitted to both chambers, and a tubing element fitted to both chambers for directing the agents into the tunnel system. Airflow produced from the airflow device flows into the first chamber causing displacement of the first agent there from and through the chamber and the tubing element, the first agent for destabilizing the target rodents, the airflow also directed through the second chamber causing displacement of the second agent there from and through the chamber and the tubing element, the second agent for killing the rodents destabilized by the first agent.
