Our Service Range

Groundhogs mostly frequent open Charleston fields, wooded regions, roadsides, gardens and yards. They are famous for their skillful and extensive burrowing. Groundhogs create plenty of problems for homeowners who have vegetable and fruit gardens. They are also keen diggers and can undermine the ground underneath your gardens and homes. In order to drive them away from your property, you will need effective South Carolina groundhog repellents. They will help in keeping the groundhogs from coming back to trouble you.



Groundhogs are known to consume quite a lot of vegetation and fruits from a garden or a yard. If you observe keenly, you will notice that the burrows made by South Carolina groundhogs have various entrances with a main opening. The nearby ground will also be found to be excavated in large mounds. These entrances work like a tunnel system for them and they are generally about twenty feet apart from the major entrance. These burrows are made by them with different chambers under the ground that are used as restrooms and nesting areas. You will have to identify and locate all these entrances to the burrows so that you can use treat them with necessary repellents so that these rodents will leave your Charleston lawns, gardens and your property.

Repellents will work on them as Charleston groundhogs have very sensitive noses. There are natural and synthetic ways of using the repellents. Readymade groundhog repellents are available on market shelves and they will work but they will not be as potent and effective on long term basis as the natural therapies. Supermarket groundhog repellent products such as the chemical-free Critter Ridders will also work as they contain powerful ingredients such as capsaicin, piperine and black pepper oil. This combination will have an adverse impact on the smell and taste of the groundhogs and also create an unpleasant and a burning sensation to drive them away. The granular version of this product can be sprinkled around your garden and it will work effectively as a defense perimeter for South Carolina groundhogs.
