How Do You Trap Groundhogs?

There are several varieties of groundhog traps available in a number of pet stores or home and garden stores. The ones with one or two doors work the best. They both work equally well and is just a matter of preference. The chances of the animal being trapped in a two door trap are more as the animal can see through the other side. Set the trap in a place where the groundhogs are likely to be found. Using bait, of course, is important to lure the animal to come to the trap. You can use anything from sweet corn, lettuce, cucumbers, fresh beans etc. Using baits with a peculiar smell will attract groundhogs more. You will get an instruction booklet with the trap which you should follow in order to get good results.
