Groundhogs

I'm moving into a house where the former garden tract has become home for a fat and feisty furball. My previous experience has been to live trap the little monsters and toddle a few miles down the road to unfarmed areas and release em. If there's another way to get rid of them (the wife is definitely not in favor of my initial suggestion of woodchuck chili), I'd appreciate your guidance. Regards, Mike D. I beat one over the head with a shovel one time, but that did not stop him from raising a family. I found out that groundhogs can (and will) climb a chicken wire fence. What stopped them was placing an electric wire around the garden one at 6", another at 3 feet from the ground, and that keeps the deer out too. |
