It’s poured into their burrows, enough that it will travel all the way down. The process is repeated until the woodchucks are driven out.

Others like to use mothballs in a similar way, as it puts the creatures off staying in those burrows. You can also simulate the presence of a predator, which will encourage them to vacate the area. Fox urine is most commonly used for this task. Finally, you can buy electronic devices that are designed to repel the woodchucks.

Trapping: Finally, trapping and releasing woodchucks is a good way to remove them from your home. These use bait to convince the woodchuck to check out the trap. Once they’re in, they’re trapped, and you can take them elsewhere to release them. Be warned, they do get aggressive when trapped, so take caution as you move the trap.

There are several ways you can convince woodchucks that your yard isn’t a great place to be. You can repel them with electronic devices, mothballs, or ammonia. You can remove their food sources, and trap them so you can relocate them.
