Woodchuck Removal

 

Woodchucks, also known as Groundhogs, are large burrowing rodents commonly found around homes, sheds, barns, decks, and foundations. These animals are known for creating extensive tunnel systems that can damage yards, weaken structures, and create hazards for people and pets. Woodchucks are strong diggers and often seek shelter beneath porches, sheds, concrete slabs, and other protected areas. We feel the best way to eliminate woodchuck problems is through humane trapping and exclusion. Once they have left the property, we recommend preventative sealing and barrier installation to avoid future invasions. If Woodchucks are tunneling throughout your yard or damaging landscaping and gardens, we offer seasonal and yearly trapping programs to keep them away.

 

Why We Love 'Em:

• We don’t! Just kidding… Woodchucks play an important role in the ecosystem and are fascinating animals to observe.

• Their burrowing helps aerate soil and can benefit natural environments.

• Woodchucks provide shelter opportunities for other wildlife once burrows are abandoned.

• They are an important food source for predators and help maintain balance in nature.

 

Issues We Have With Them:

• Woodchucks can dig large burrow systems beneath sheds, decks, foundations, and concrete slabs causing structural instability.

• Their tunneling can damage lawns, landscaping, gardens, and farming areas.

• Burrow entrances may create tripping hazards for people, pets, and equipment.

• Woodchucks are known to chew on vegetation and can quickly destroy gardens and ornamental plants.

• If ignored, active burrows may continue expanding and attract additional wildlife activity around the property.
