I have a groundhog living under my deck. What's the best way to get rid of it?

Question

Looking for a non-lethal, preferably natural solution.

Answer 1

If you have a cat, find the hole and bury used cat litter there. The Groundhog hates the smell and will leave

Answer 2

You can't get rid of one. You will have to wait until he goes into hibernation this coming winter and then move without leaving a forwarding address. It is obvious that you are too damn dumb to just shoot the little bas---d. In the mountains of Tenessee we would eat him. Groundhog with gravy and biscuits washed down with lots of good Budweiser is Sunday dinner here in out trailer.

Answer 3

We have had no luck discouraging them without smoking them out but then we put chicken wire on the ground under the deck and staked it down.

Answer 4

To get rid of your deck, simply begin removing the boards one by one until it is gone.

Answer 5

He is easy to tame with dry dog food. He will even come in your house but the claws are no good for the floors. Live trap him with dry dog food and peanut butter. Release him across a river so he will not return to your neighborhood. You are very welcome.

Answer 6

Your local Animal Control agency would probably remove it for you and re-locate it for you, as well. If after calling them you find out they won't do a removal, be sure to ask them for a referral or recommendation.

Answer 7

I'd suggest watching Caddyshack, and gather some ideas from bill murray

Answer 8

If you dont want to kill it a live catch trap baited with potato peels work every time.

Answer 9

Shot Gun ok a natural Shot Gun

Answer 10

best thing to do is buy a really large supply of rat poisen
