    I am buying that! We have trapped 6 this year, and there are still more around. Thanks for sharing 🙂

      Read the MSDS and keep it in a safe place. I read somewhere that it can kill small children and dogs up to 70#. With the peanut butter smell it could be inviting for someone to eat it.

    I have used a similar product and it worked on ground hogs and raccoons. However, they tend to crawl underneath and die so be prepared for the smell of that

    I bought a couple buckets of that stuff. And they ate it as fast as I put it out. I didn't notice any decrease in their population.

    Very helpful video. Thank you for posting.
    I think they are eating my daylilies. I have ordered the Bait Block, but I feel a bit guilty in wanting to kill them. I'm choosing my flowers over the groundhogs. I kind of feel like a bad person.

      If they are destroying your flowers, then get rid of the groundhogs.

      I purchased the product and have been putting it out each evening. Something is eating it, but I haven't seen what is eating it.
      I have also seen deer in my yard, an armadillo, and rabbits. I also think I have Chipmunks even though I haven't seen any.

    Didn't even know Groundhog bait was a thing. A lot better than setting and waiting for them to stick their head out of the ground to take a shot. Good information to know.

    • @TAHDAHFarm
      @TAHDAHFarm  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It is not on the label but it works. I seen 3 out eating one day. But you could sit there for hours and they may never show up. This is nice because there is no trap to check and reset. Also don't need to worry about what might be in the line of fire to shoot them, houses or people.

    Glad to see it seem to work! That's what happened to the old run down looking house beside my little shop. Ground hogs for in , dug up around the rocks holding the foundation and it started collapsing beyond repair. Hope that rids them, esp under the barn!! I'm sure you have said before, but is your flatbed a diesel? Thank you for bringing us along!!

      It is a diesel, Ford 03, 6.0 but I have done all the upgrades to fix the problems with the engine. Since I decided not to take the barn down, I'm trying to save it and the most important part is to get rid of these pest, lol.

    I have a pair that have taken up residence under my mother's old house - and they keep churning out little groundhogs that have spread over my small farm. The smell part is what I was curious about as I don't relish the idea of them crawling off dying/decaying under the house lol. Not sure what to do about that pair. The other dens are far enough away the smell wouldn't be an issue. Your thoughts?

    • @TAHDAHFarm
      @TAHDAHFarm  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I had no smell at the barn only at the field. Not sure why but it was bad out there in the field. I still have some at the barn but they have been thinned out. Good luck with whatever you decide.
