Tired of Tunnels? The Best Groundhog Repellent Is Here

One day your lawn is perfect, and the next, a giant mound of dirt appears next to a gaping hole. A groundhog (or woodchuck) has moved in. These relentless eating and digging machines can destroy a garden overnight and compromise the foundations of your sheds and decks with their extensive tunnels.

You need a groundhog repellent for gardens, yards, and other spaces that does more than just annoy them. You need a natural groundhog deterrent that speaks their language, the language of survival.

How Predator Urine Repels Groundhogs Away

Groundhogs are cautious creatures for a reason. In the wild, they are a favorite meal for predators like coyotes and foxes. Their entire life is built around staying alert and close to a burrow they can escape into at the first sign of danger.

This is where The Pee Mart products come in. When a groundhog smells the potent scent of real Coyote Urine or Fox Urine, it doesn't just perceive a bad smell; it perceives an immediate, deadly threat. Its powerful survival instincts kick in and tell it that a skilled hunter is nearby.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How do I know which hole is the main entrance to the burrow?

There will typically be a large main entrance to a groundhog's burrow with an adjacent mound of dirt formed from the excavation. You may see a few alternate and smaller "escape holes" nearby with little pile-up of dirt around them. Ensure that the main entrance receives good treatment.

2. Will this natural groundhog deterrent harm my garden plants?

No. Our P-Cover Scent Granules are designed to be applied to the soil around the base of your plants, not directly on them. When used as directed, they create a protective barrier without causing any harm to your vegetables or flowers.

3. The groundhog sealed the hole I treated. What does that mean?

Sometimes, a groundhog will try to block the scent by plugging an entrance with dirt. This is a good sign, it means the repellent is working and bothering them! If they haven't left after a day or two, simply reapply the repellent to re-establish the threat.
