Thanks. When my husband gets home i will have him take this pesty groundhog to the state forest.

and MANY thanks from the beleaguered Lee.

So it is trapped now?

I waited all day in hopes that I could send a positive report but nothing so far.
I just posted a story I wrote some years ago about groundhogs...the first year they came to our garden. Maybe they found their way back and know better than to go into the trap.

They are smart. I just read your groundhog story and really enjoyed it. I left you a reply. Hope you have better luck today. :)

Thanks. It is a cloudy and rainy day so maybe they will come inside.

We will just have to wait and see.

still waiting...I will try adding more melon tonight and then they may come for a midnight snack
