@@orane3549 I would leave the box on the doorstep with a note. Dear Lori, Being with you was great. Sorry we have to go our separate ways. I guess taking selfies for facebook and Twitter is your thing. I got you a puppy dog you always wanted. He's cute. Just pull the string to release. Have fun !
Glad I finally caught the little bastard in my yard!! It was tearing up my garden!! I used apples coated with peanut butter and vanilla extract. I've noticed that these rodents are suckers for sweet fruit and peanut butter. I put him on pickup and set him free at the local lake minutes from my house.
I will do the same thing. thanks for sharing..I want to kill the groundhog in my garden but my husband doesn't..last year I replanted my veggies 3x cuz of him..
Arrgh my neighbor is trying to help me catch one that I watched literally "inspect" the trap, ate all of the cantaloupe leading up to the trap...by morning to our surprise there was a raccoon caught up inside!
@@anauxistential8486 Yeah that's a problem.. If i leave my trap set overnight I will always end up with something else like a coon or possum by morning.
I have one the same size that destroyed my garden last year and is preventing everything from growing this year. Got the trap and tried to camo it with branches. Saw him sitting next to it today eating my peas!! Changing the bait tonight.
Thanks for your quick and simple video. I have one that's eating up the corner trim boards on my shed. He'll be lucky that I'm catching him live, and setting him loose near the state park behind me
worked well, i have one under my backyard shed that i need to get rid of. can you rent these traps ? i just emailed a pest control company to just see if they do that sort of thing? where did you get yours? $? also are these chucks normally alone? family? ive only ever seen the 1
a box trap I is ok I used pickles cover with a tarp they like it dark what works better is a clamp trap make sure you have a chain on the trap it took 15 days to pull it from under my shed I live in the city then killed it with a axe
I've got one of these style traps. Bothers me that there is no way to open the door without lifting the latch, and pushing the door inward, and then up. Always worried an animal could swing around and bite my arm as it exits. What are your thoughts on that?
Groundhogs teeth never stop growing so they have to chew on something such as wood to keep them wore down, otherwise they would keep growing, curl under and they wouldn't be able to eat.. So if you have any wood under your garage, you can bet they are chewing on it.. You should see the damage they did under my deck..
Anthony Anderson I live in the middle of the city on a large 1 acre lot and caught probably 12-15 groundhogs in the past 2 years (4-5 months a year they hibernate).. They can and will cause allot of damage, which they have done.. Groundhogs have to chew on something because their teeth constentaly grow and if they don't chew on something their teeth will actually curl.. At my place they were chewing on the wood under my deck and they were making deep holes along side my house which cause water drainage problems along my foundation.. These critters are cute but you don't want them in your yard or near your house.
They love carrots but you have to make sure they can find them because they don't put out much scent.. You can always make a small bait trail leading to the trap.. Not sure about Cantalope though, never tried it.
I have 2 captured that were under my porch of home then the guy who got them took them to some woods quite aways and let them go. He said very important things about them. He said they must be removed to prevent extensive burrowing under house and driveway. With all their burrowing they can cause weakness where ground used to be and cause sinking of porch, driveway etc. He said he has seen driveways sink because the burrowing undermined the the ground keeping driveway up and intact. Must remove them.
i made a homemade cage that needs to be set and triggered manually theres a groundhog stuck under my BBQ and won't get out. I've tried to draw it out and wait it out. seems to be injured and my dog is going nuts. what should I do?
I've tried a bunch of vegetables and fruit and was never successful but haven't tried carrots, gonna give it a go. I hate them so much, chew on my house and destroy the landscaping.
I never thought of carrots either, I've been reading on cantaloup being success, well so far that's just created a swarm of bees. I'm going to try carrots, I'm in the middle of a busy city, I was shocked I seen it hiding under my closed in porch
Carrots worked, I caught 2. A friend suggested cantaloupe but it didn't work when I tried it. This year besides the 2 I caught I shot 4, and I still have more digging on both sides of my house. They're like a plague.
I did finally catch my woodchuck, I had carrots, an apple covered in peanut butter, broccoli, and cantaloupe in it and squeezed the juice all over the cage. It was caught within 4hrs after it was reset.
I have something TEARING UP my tomato garden and I don't know if it's squirrels, chipmunks or the groundhog that lives on my property - I figured the groundhog is too big to get under the netting I put around my garden...HHHEEEELLLLLPPPPP!!!!
Groundhog. For sure. As soon as it showed up, my carrot tops, kholorabi, cauliflower was torn up...and my bags in shed....bastard....I feel.like caddyshack right now!
Groundhogs aka woodchucks can dig up to 25ft below ground. My grandmother had one burrow under her garage foundation when I was a kid, and it collapsed it.
These little critters consumed all my sweet corn last year an destroyed my shed floor i actually fell through the floor of my shed i just got this trap today plus i ordered the conibear traps cause raccoons have shown up now what is this wild kingdom with all the woods in the area they choose my yard...
One of these ripped my neighbors cats hind leg off they had to put the cat down. They shot the critter with a pellet gun 15x or more the thing played dead while being shot it body jerked from pellet impact I thought it was dead for sure. Went to get my shovel to bury the thing to my amazement the darn thing finishes playing dead got up and scurried off to the other neighbors yard. Critter looked unharmed it was like the pellets bounced off it. Shot with a breakbarrel pellet rifle from about 60 ft away. A real gun would have done the trick.
We caught a young woodchuck in our live trap so we know there's a Mama woodchuck still in the burrow she dug under our shed. We don't kill them. We take them for a ride and release them out in the woods far from homes and gardens. This family has just about decimated our garden! Going to try carrots and watermelon tomorrow.
don't get caught releasing them in a park. most communities have laws against that. I live near a national park and it's a federal offence. so, if you do it do it when nobody's around.
I just let my dogs rip them apart. The winner is the one with the biggest piece. It does not depend on size but where they grab it. The 130 lb. dog grabbed a hind leg and the 100 lb. dog grabbed the neck. The big dog pulled the hind leg off and got mostly skin. One good thing about woodchucks is they did their own graves.
+Pesak Hraap I can quite clearly see there's no point in going into it with someone as low as you, so why bother? If you can't see the incredibly evil thing you're doing then you're obviously beyond help. I just wanted you to know that you're a piece of shit.
I like how his first instinct after he realizes he's trapped is to immediately start eating.
I can relate.
Probably thinking, man they really want you to clean your plate in this restaurant.
Yep, that's what ours did yesterday, just kept eating those carrots. 😂
A groundhog is a wonderful gift to give an ex girlfriend.
Or ex boyfriend.

@@mrBDeye LOVE IT!!
Anybody else watching this while looking at the woodchuck in their front yard because I am
Mad Mike I’m watching while waiting for my trap out back to catch the one that’s been going under my house.
Erika Fu if your talking about a garden then you should definitely remove it, it’s trespassing on your property and makes the ground weak.
Well mine is outta here, I trapped him two days ago. 😁

The Patriot I’m liberal and have zero problems taking out a groundhog. 🤷♀️ They’re destructive pests.
Why would you kill a groundhog just put it over far away they mean no harm
@@Deezweinermen2000 IF that is the case, take one in your house as a pet. It can sleep with you in bed. IDIOT!
@@Deezweinermen2000 you don’t want groundhogs to die but I bet you have no problem with cops killing innocent unarmed Black people.
Thanks for sharing ...I've got 3 under my porch and much prefer this way of doing it...Appreciate the video
Just shot em
Hes like "fuck it - Ima eat"
I just placed it a few feet from his hole and put a trail of small pieces of carrots leading to the trap.. I caught 9 so far..
Arrgh my neighbor is trying to help me catch one that I watched literally "inspect" the trap, ate all of the cantaloupe leading up to the trap...by morning to our surprise there was a raccoon caught up inside!

Sweet thnx. I just set out canned pine apple, DNR said anything with a sweet fruity smell to it and veggies.
YES YES!! THIS IS THE TRAP I NEED!!
Thanks for your quick and simple video. I have one that's eating up the corner trim boards on my shed. He'll be lucky that I'm catching him live, and setting him loose near the state park behind me
I always release them down at the river. Too bad they can't swim!
they can swim
they just turn into beavers
@@kosycat1 In other words, he drowns them, probably in the closed trap.
Very impressive especially the bait segment.
Man that chuck was huge.
Everything grows bigger in the north, even the woman
Cuzntime that is a mean comment! :)
Gemma Gabutero Ah, but so true.
LOL
worked well, i have one under my backyard shed that i need to get rid of. can you rent these traps ? i just emailed a pest control company to just see if they do that sort of thing? where did you get yours? $? also are these chucks normally alone? family? ive only ever seen the 1
wow, you catch them so easiliy lol, your a expert.
a box trap I is ok I used pickles cover with a tarp they like it dark what works better is a clamp trap make sure you have a chain on the trap it took 15 days to pull it from under my shed I live in the city then killed it with a axe
Holy crap. I live in a rural area and use a crossbow or .22. An axe is serious business my man.
“Keep goin….” 🤣😂
What size trap is that?
I've got one of these style traps. Bothers me that there is no way to open the door without lifting the latch, and pushing the door inward, and then up. Always worried an animal could swing around and bite my arm as it exits. What are your thoughts on that?
LOL, yes I know exactly what you mean.. I have had critters snap at me as im trying to open the door
Have a tread connected on both latches, then pull em both at the same time from safe distance
he still eats the food
I’m trapped!!!
Might as well eat.
Groundhogs teeth never stop growing so they have to chew on something such as wood to keep them wore down, otherwise they would keep growing, curl under and they wouldn't be able to eat.. So if you have any wood under your garage, you can bet they are chewing on it.. You should see the damage they did under my deck..
He scooted back as if he was embarrassed
I have this exact same trap and just caught one this morning using apples.
Groundhogs ate most of my leafy vegetables, where can i buy trap? I used light weight cover but didn't work, groundhog destroyed it ! Ugh!!!!
Gemma Gabutero Home Depot or Lowes have these. I just bought one over the weekend.
***** Thank you! I'll check there sometime.
Anthony Anderson I will have to try apples.. I used carrots because they seem to last longer before they rot..

Caddy shack style

So funny he looked right at you...lol
What did you bait him with?
One lives under my garage..
i made a homemade cage that needs to be set and triggered manually theres a groundhog stuck under my BBQ and won't get out. I've tried to draw it out and wait it out. seems to be injured and my dog is going nuts. what should I do?
Smoke bomb!
I put peanut butter on a paper plate, and a couple of crushed apples.
Carrots..
cantaloupe is a good bait
That hasn't worked yet for me :/
Carrots work very well
I’ve had good luck with cantaloupe.
How far away did you release the groundhog?
At a park a few miles away.. There are lots of them there..
I've tried a bunch of vegetables and fruit and was never successful but haven't tried carrots, gonna give it a go. I hate them so much, chew on my house and destroy the landscaping.

Carrots do work, caught one today
Yeah I ended up catching 2 using carrots, but I've gone back to shooting them, so much easier.
I did finally catch my woodchuck, I had carrots, an apple covered in peanut butter, broccoli, and cantaloupe in it and squeezed the juice all over the cage. It was caught within 4hrs after it was reset.
Ones on my property are not gonna enter that trap.

Ok there was now how, I have several in my back yard. What did you use for bait? More like just "catching a groundhog" not how to bro.
What did you do with it after you got it ?
We took it to a local park and let it go
this state no releasing kill it . myself like to let it go .
If they didn't do damage it would be fine to let them live near your house
jeffscomp exactly. The ones around my house, like to dig under it and tear up the foundation. 🤬
what did you do with it?
0:30 Wait what? Fuck it.
+ipissed noms! nom nom nom nom.... door? eh... nom nom nom nom nom.
How do you get rid of it tho.
u blast his ass
Lead poisoning
These little critters consumed all my sweet corn last year an destroyed my shed floor i actually fell through the floor of my shed i just got this trap today plus i ordered the conibear traps cause raccoons have shown up now what is this wild kingdom with all the woods in the area they choose my yard...
can i have it so it can eat vegetables. in my garden
I just caught one, hopefully he doesn’t find his way back home
LOL, I used to worry about that too
ShootBigBucks Gaming won’t they bring bubonic plague? 🤣
Glad you let it go.
One of these ripped my neighbors cats hind leg off they had to put the cat down.

Critter looked unharmed it was like the pellets bounced off it.
Shot with a breakbarrel pellet rifle from about 60 ft away.
A real gun would have done the trick.
If you hit them in the head with a pellet they'll die. hit them in the side and it bounces off and makes a drumlike sound.
put something down in your car if you relocate them or they'll leave a reminder of why you can't stand them.
I relocate mine too another plane of existence. No need for car.

Took it to the local park and let it go.. I have caught 5 already and done the same thing with them..
Cuzntime are you sure its wasn't just the same one coming back to their home? Lol

What exactly is “how to” about this video
It's sooo sad watching it!
tim3vlog That isn't sad...whats sad is all the damage those fuckers do
tim3vlog We let it go at a local park (7 mile long park) and it ate the rest of carrots on the way there, lol
Kill it, its a nuisance animal, just like rats. Don't make it suffer or anything like that, that's cruelty, but kill it.
tim3vlog So true. Should have shot it
***** That's true. There are a numbers of groundhog dishes you can prepare. Google search for recipes.
our cat was just caught in one of these traps, his neck pinned in between the door, he probably won't Make it. ...congrats neighbor, you suck,
Thats your fault lol. Be a better pet owner lol.
+Joe Arbuckle Dude....why in the hell did you let your cat out with a trap set?
two things....its my moms cat. secondly, the neighbors down the road had a trap out that we had NO idea was even out there.
+Joe Arbuckle - you let your pets roam beyond your property line and all bets are off.
+Dave Johnson yeah that's what i told my mother. needless to say, that cat is a house cat only now.
