The solution I’ve found is a temporary one, but effective. Home Depot sells a power called “Rat Magic”. It doesn’t kills them, but it does repel them. I have to reapply it after rain, but they do disappear right after I sprinkle it around. And - it smells like cloves to me, so no bad odor. -

Unfortunately I don't have any advice on deterring groundhogs, but in Massachusetts it is illegal to relocate wild animals, though it is possible to retain a licensed wildlife control technician to remove them. Years ago when we lived in Arlington we had to hire someone to remove a skunk from

We have two, one living under a shed, the other under a corner of the house. They're not damaging anything; I say let them be. On Fri, Jul 29, 2022 at 10:47 AM Sonja Johansson wrote: > If you need more help, Matt might be able to help you. > matt@concordcarlislepest > 978-866-0552 > Sonja > >

I don’t believe you can legally relocate a groundhog. In the past I’ve used a smoke bomb in the hole and cover up the hole to take care of the groundhog On Fri, Jul 29, 2022 at 10:22 AM Robin Wilkerson < outsideinformat...@gmail.com> wrote: > I think I’ve shared this before, but USED kitty

I think I’ve shared this before, but USED kitty litter is a fabulous deterrent to groundhogs. They hate it - obviously don’t use in the vegetable garden but if you know where their den is - put it down the hole or scatter it under the shed - wherever they are. In my experience, this has always
