Okay - Now it's war! I've overlooked the mounds and holes in the lawn, the worst of that is watching for holes so I don't step in one and fall. I really don't care about the tunnels into the half wine barrels. I simply didn't plant them this year. The flower beds are a whole different story. Finding an occasional mound or hole in a corner or against the wall is disconcerting and frustrating, but live and let live.
However, when I saw the main stem of one of my dianthus' disappear and be replaced by a large mound of dirt ... well, now it's war. Gophers = 1, me = 0 ... so far. I know I'll feel guilty later but I'm off to the nursery for gopher bait.
