Help! Groundhogs have invaded my yard! What is the best way to get rid of them and keep them from coming back?

Answer 1

seriously throw a smoke bomb in the hole and whenthey are out of the hole fill it with rocks

MAKE SURE they don't have babies in there first

Answer 2

Get yourself some Jack Russell terriers! They kill every varmint they can,and will go down into the hole to get the hogs. We use ours to clean out the hayloft in the barn and get rid of the raccoons.

beat them with a baseball bat til dead then hang the dead corpse in the yard for all to see. it worked for vlad the impaler.

Answer 4

Use explosives.

Answer 5

Check out your local home and garden store or a local feed store, you should be able to find a posin that is geared toward killing groundhogs.

Answer 6

they make some pretty evil looking traps that are spring loaded that you put in the path of the tunnel and when they walk under it the spring engages and chops them in half with a scary looking knife i wouldn't use it because it would scare the shitout of me the trap springs and you hear them scream *shudder* i would use a humane trap or a repellent and if you want to keep them out you could cement youre yard but thats probly not what you want to hear

Answer 7

It all depends on if you want them dead or to leave alive. The way I kill them is to dump about a pint of gas down their hole, wait about 30 seconds and toss a match in the hole and since they have two entrances, the fumes go through and blows them up. I know it sounds cruel but we have horses and if a horse steps in a hole it will break their leg. This really works and solves the problem. If you live in a populated area and just want them to leave, just dump mothballs around your garden and since they hate the smell thay will leave. If you want to live trap them, they love cheese twists like cheetoes. I know you have never done this but they are awful good eating if you skin them right by removing the scent glands under their armpits. They eat the same thing as a cow and the meat tastes similar. Real good canned or barbequed with no chloresterol too. mmmmm!
