Does anyone know how to keep woodchucks out of a barn? I've trapped and released and on occasion shot at least 12 in the past 4 years. I'll go into the barn and find an excavation of dirt, the varmints are undermining the concrete floor in my milking area!
Late last fall, I found a big plastic tarp almost halfways pulled down a hole in the corner by one of the varmints. I went out one day and noticed a big hole had been chewed in the bottom of one of the barn doors, like a giant rat had been at work.
The one who tried to pull the tarp down his burrow last fall, I finally caught and released him this morning.
I've been taking them down the road about 3 miles away and releasing them (its a wooded area in the country). Is that far enough away? Is it possible these critters are coming back home?
Read lots of info on the internet about keeping them out of gardens, etc. But not much on what to do to keep them from invading buildings.
