    Q How long does Kaput-D Pocket Gopher Bait take to work? answer now
    Asked on December 18, 2025 12:35 PM
    A Kaput-D Pocket Gopher Bait begins working after gophers consume a lethal amount of bait, with results typically becoming noticeable within 2–4 days. Most users see a reduction in new soil mounds within 3–7 days, while complete control of active gophers usually occurs within 5–10 days, depending on feeding behavior and correct bait placement. Kaput-D uses an anticoagulant active ingredient, which produces delayed effects to prevent bait shyness. This allows gophers to continue feeding naturally without associating the bait with illness, increasing the likelihood of lethal consumption. Affected gophers typically remain underground, so visible carcasses are uncommon. Instead, success is measured by declining mound activity. For best results, place Kaput-D directly into active gopher burrows and avoid leaving bait exposed above ground. Proper placement is critical for fast and consistent results.

    A Place Kaput D in the pocket gophers burrows at a rate of one-half cup per runway.  An upside down T is what you are looking for, so one-half cup in the right tunnel and one-half cup in the left tunnel.
