Marginally effective for springtime application

I live in southern California where gopher issues are absolutely pestilential. This spring has been especially egregious; I've been using this bait in conjunction with the Yard Butler applicator to get it down into tunnels. After several weeks of diligent application over about a half acre plot, I've found just one dead gopher outside of its tunnel, and otherwise no noticeable decrease in the amount of new mounds appearing on a daily basis. When I go back to look under the rocks that I place over baited access holes, many are filled back in, so I know gophers are getting to the bait, but I'm stumped as to why they're still surviving. We've had wetter weather this spring and the soil is damp; I'm not sure if the bait is breaking down quickly in tunnels, or if this is a seasonal timing issue for gophers being willing/unwilling to accept treated bait, but this product has been minimally effective for me. I'm not sure what variety of mutant gophers we have in our area, but I've used other baits in the past (different, scarier active ingredients) with better results.
