How do I get rid of gophers?

Gophers keep popping up....I put a person on it and they just walk away!

They will eventually stop showing up, and occasionally, a family member will decide to cover the hole, but it's not something that you can have them do.

Have you completed the "Chasing Gophers" goal yet? If not you may be interested in this post. It is a Spoiler though so only read it if you want to know how to complete the goal.
