No! Not good at all! I hate the darn things! You can't get rid of them. You can chase them away, but they just come back. You either have to trap them and haul them far, far away or kill them. We have pretty close neighbors, so killing them is out of the question. The man that farms part of our 10 acres shoots them when ever he can. They have been destroying his fields. You should have seen how much of his soybeans he planted on our property were eaten away last year! Not to mention all of the holes in his fields!Critterkeep I agree with you. I'm 52 and I've never seen nor had to kill so many groundhogs the last two or three years.
We have plenty of coyotes around so I'm not sure why the population explosion.
They like to get under my coop, did a hole to their den and then pack the dirt up against the wood floor, not good.
