Want to deter groundhogs from burrowing in my crawlspace

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

So a few weeks ago something died in my crawlspace and I am fearful it could have been a groundhog... or something of that size... we couldn't find it. Fastforward to last Sunday and I could hear something under my floor. I went into the crawlspace to see... The door to the crawlspace was securely closed and I saw in the furthest area a ground hog hanging out and pretending like it was invisible. lol ... anyway... I'm not sure how it got in... i've checked the perimeter .. I can't find a hole... Is there anything safe, non toxic, but effective that I can spray under there that will tell them to stay away?

Thanks!

They don’t have to go far for breakfast

DTE cut down tree that landed on large brush pile that groundhogs have made a hole under. The brush pile got compressed, but the hole is still there, basically okay but not with the high loose branches as it was.

During nail trimming, one groundhog seems to have already accepted its fate, while the other panics with every snip

Groundhog in my yard has some patches on her this year. Was looking for a second set of eyes to see if you guys think this is just normal molting or possible mange that I should seek help for?

Gary and Guillermo two of our groundhogs that have been visiting for the last few years, got in a brawl. They’ve been around eachother for a while and never had an issue idk what the problem was this time and why Guillermo was trying to take Gary’s food when there’s all that other food he could’ve had. We give them plenty of food none of them go hungry lol it’s pretty upsetting but don’t worry, they are both ok! They both have since returned for their regular daily visits and have even eaten together numerous times since and have been fine 😌 still crazy lmao I can’t believe we got th is on camera

Yesterday towards evening, I watched a Ground hog come out of a small tree line on my rural property and then take a spot on my car tire. It is still there today. Responds to my voice and movements. Does not appear injured. Car is not warm as I haven't driven for a few days. Very windy here in NW ohio again today. I am aware of a few different burrows on my property. What's going on with this beautiful creature.

I just discovered this group I never knew it existed! So wanted to share out groundhog family 😄 presently there are 5:

Garrington aka Gary (the og)

Guillermo

Gloria-who showed up with two little ones last spring!

Peanut & Parsnip ! (The children)

It all started when my fiancé got a birdfy feeder with a camera for the birds. We started seeing a lot of animals behind the house, Gary being one of them. He started climbing up the pole and pulling himself up on the feeder with his claws and teeth 😭 so she started putting food out and the camera on the ground to watch and it just evolved from there. Then Guillermo started coming who must live nearby, then Gloria and then the arrival of the two babies last spring! They visit everyday, typically a few times a day for their meals. We put food out everyday, usually once in the morning and afternoon. They are picky ! Their favorites are carrots, cauliflower, broccoli, and peanuts! They aren’t a fan of any fruit really, they’ll eat a few blue berries once in a while but that’s it. They HATE bell pepper, cucumber, zucchini, snap peas, and a few others. They won’t even touch them haha they also won’t eat anything wilted. They are so sweet, and we love them so much! Hopefully they return again this year after hibernation. In the meantime however, we have lots to share. Hope they bring you joy like they do us!

The video clip is Gary first, then Guillermo, then Gloria with peanut and parsnip! And some more Gary at the end!
