I was wondering how to chase groundhogs out from underneath houses without killing them while they are under the house?
I do not want to light the house on fire either.
Thanks for your info!

Still hibernating here.

Can you install hardware cloth on all sides except for a small area that you stick your trap? It will eventually need to come out for food and water.

I am surprised, we have them moving all over here lately. It is in the teens, with a lot of snow cover still. We caught 3 coming out of skunk dens, but didn't get this one....

I think when the time clock dings they move. I caught one the first week of Feb in a coon snare, temps in the 20's Got my first job and caught it a few days ago. I am seeing holes with fresh dirt. When the instincts that God put in them wakes up they move no matter what we humans say.

I saw my first one yesterday. He was on the shoulder of the road and I think when I drove past he flipped me the bird.

They have been out here for a couple of weeks now. Saw a big one standing at attention today on the road bank along a busy highway. Didn't look like he had lost much weight from the size of him.

If they have plenty of food, give them something interesting to smell
