The saga of the rental house never ends. I now have a 8x10 storage shed doubling as a groundhog hotel. At least 7 of them are living there, and of those at least 4 are juvenile. They must be evicted one way or another. Being in town I can't shoot them with a 22 or use kill type traps that might get the neighborhood tomcat. I am therefore pushed off to live traps and have no clue what to use as bait. If push comes to shove I have a .177 break barrel air rifle that claims 1000 fps, which has taken coons and similarly sized critters. There is an open field and hillside behind the yard so backstop is acceptable there for an air rifle. Suggestions on bait or ways to run these jokers off would be greatly appreciated. As for the shed, they are going under it, and mothballs hasn't done the trick in 2 weeks.
