    A:  Yes, 3 traps

      A:  Yes, mine came in a three pack. They work pretty well. I have been using them for a couple years now. I use them in combination with another type of trap depending on the situation. The only drawback is how easily and badly they rust! My other traps are stainless so they don’t rust.

        A:  Yes, the package contains three Cinch Traps. These are the best gopher traps on the market.

            Q:What size trap is the normal size to buy

            Answer This Question

            A:  You need to measure the diameter of gopher hole to decide what size trap to buy.

            by|Apr 19, 2020

              A:  Depends on the area you live in. Texas gophers are the pocket gophers and you need small. Some areas have bigger ones and need bigger traps. The medium traps I accidentally bought were very big and very strong to set. Couldn't do it.

                A:  The small size seems best for most tunnels. The larger size won’t fit down many of the holes. I have had a couple larger tunnels where the larger size works better, but for the most part the smaller size is easier to use. These traps do rust quickly, just as a precaution.

                  A:  Depends on how fat your Gophers got....honestly not much size difference between medium and small, the two sizes I've used.

                    I like that you can see that it is tripped without pulling it out of the tunnel

                    AMAZING!!!
                    I had a growing gopher problem in my backyard, thought I had one, maybe two gophers. Tried lots of different things, which combined caught one gopher over a month. I ordered the three pack of the small gopher traps and installed them one evening. After about ten minutes, the first trap snapped. Before I had that trap cleared, another one sprung, then the third. Three gophers in less than 20 minutes. I was taking the gophers out of the holes within moments of the traps being sprung, and they were all dead. No lingering death or having to finish the gophers off myself. You do have to find the right gopher hole, but these traps are incredible. No digging or probing for tunnels. They have a lot of sharp edges, and take a few minutes to understand how to set them, so wear heavy leather gloves until you're comfortable setting them. Well worth the money, don't waste time or money with other traps.

                      Caught 4 gophers in one week. Tried everything else; nothing works. Cinch traps are the only way to kill the critters that actually works.

                      Six gophers in one week, these traps seem to be the easiest to set and are effective.

                      Just works
                      I've been trying to get this gopher for weeks - my exterminator could not do it. Received these cinch traps yesterday, place them in the holes last night - one dead gopher in the am. Stress over these huge mounds created by such small rodents is all gone. Super easy to set. I was worried it would go off as I was putting it in the hole, but really needs the pressure plate to be hit in order to snap. Like the fact you can release and drop the gopher in a bag without having to touch/pick up.

                        Larger Cinch traps were too big of an opening for the small but so destructive gophers we have in the high desert of southern California

                        Worked like a charm. Took a few days but I caught the varmint I was after. I highly recommend this product.

                        This is the trap to buy. I've bought other brands of this type of trap and found them defective and therefore ineffective. This one works and has been my go-to for several years. Buy Cinch and you'll get your gophers.

                        Right Size for the Right Gopher
                        The smaller Cinch trap is the correct size for the northwest pocket gopher. The distance between the cinch prongs needs to be 2 1/2 in. The consumer will still need to cut off 1/4 inch off the length of the prongs to properly size it to the gopher hole. This should be done at the factory.
