Have-a-heart traps?

wow, I didn't know that we had groundhogs here in the city.... good luck on this. I'll be interested in the responses you get.

We could loan you our dog. She chased one up a utility pole one afternoon last summer. We didn't know they could climb poles, but it seems they can if sufficiently motivated. It stayed there until some time after dark (I checked until about 10:00 pm and it was still there at that time). It was gone the next morning and we haven't seen it since. She's good about making raccoons move on also.

We hired a service to remove the groundhogs, with have a heart type traps. So far they have caught three possums and the groundhogs are staying safely in their hog hole. We'll see what happens...
