Any suggestions on how to rid my property of groundhogs

I know of at least one maybe two

there have been several sightings in the backyard and a hole chewed in my garage door

and a few in my front flowerbed closest to the house surrounding my porch going under the porch trampling/chewing on my tender vegitation

I tried "live traps" two years ago and they didn't work
derned varmits wouldn't go into them

Please Help!!! :'(

 

I think there is another post on here about groundhogs. My son poured used kitty litter down the path or hole and they left. dooley

 

Used kitty litter worked for me too.

 

but I don't have kitties to use the litter :'(

 

I guess rabbit litter will not work the same. Do you have a friend or neighbor with a cat? Can you get a cat from a shelter? Probably the cat will cause as many problems as the groundhog though.
dooley

 

No I don't think Bunny litter would be the same since I use cedar bedding for Valentine's litter box

I don't know anyone who has a cat and I am allergic so I can't get one
(plus I am not a cat person)

Dooley I just went and found the other thread you were talking about guess there is nothing I can do :'(

 

You could move to Norway. We haven't got groundhogs.

 

a little to cold for my old bones!

 

and now to add insult to injury....

A racoon has decided to make a home under my porch

it's Dr. Doolittle syndrome all over again :'(

 

*whispers* We haven't got racoons either, Bluewolf.

 

Silly Droopy!!

 

Maybe I could send you my gray squirrels, Bluewolf?
They are digging up my planters hiding the filberts they are stealing. Might as well add to your Doolittle home.

 

Thanks But no thanks Jewells
I got squirrel problems of my own

:-D
