We have gophers in our field. There is one single feral cat in my farm that’s is rather good at catching the gophers. Chihuahuas too do a great job.
We set up some owl shelters and raptor poles. Snakes, cats, raptors are all predators. All of them unavailable in cities where rats don’t just survive, they thrive!
Gophers are a big problem. As it’s an organic farm, pest control options are limited. A few years ago, someone came to test their sonic gopher eradication system. Using sound waves. I don’t know if that would work for other rodents.
Squirrels are just rats with a bushier prettier tail. We love squirrels. Weird.
