Woodchucks and Groundhogs

Our Store Window in Jersey City
Down to Earth: Identifying the Woodchuck and Groundhog Challenge
Woodchucks and groundhogs are actually the same animal. This creature, known scientifically as Marmota monax, is referred to as a woodchuck in some regions and a groundhog in others. They are renowned for their burrowing habits, which can pose significant problems for homeowners and businesses.

With their robust digging skills, these creatures can create extensive tunnel systems that destabilize structures, ruin landscapes, and threaten the health of vegetation. Not to mention, their voracious appetite for plants can decimate gardens and crops. Understanding these problems is the first step to effective management.
Waging War on Woodchucks: The Pitfalls of DIY Solutions
DIY solutions for woodchuck and groundhog control can seem appealing, but they often fall short. Fences can be burrowed under, and repellents quickly lose their effectiveness. Furthermore, these creatures are known to be quite stubborn and are not easily deterred from their chosen territory, making professional intervention necessary.
