Ground hogs are tough to kill a 22-250 does the trick at 4,000ft per second. They respond to the click of the trigger there so fast.

We used to use a simple mix of gasoline followed by a M-80 down the hole. The flash bang effect drove them out.
Another thing to do would be to force a cone shaped piece of chicken wire down into the holes so they can't get in or out.

Whatever you do, just don't advertise it. Somebody WILL take umbrage.

I tried everything to get rid of the Chipmunks and moles that were destroying Our Garden and Lawn but nothing worked,Then We got a new Neighbor that has two Cat's and They cleaned Them out fast.When I think of all the time and Money I wasted when all I needed was a Cat.

Cats work better than decon. Funny my inside cats line up for can food. My three tamed ferals are happy to eat dry food and get there meat fresh outside.

There is a company that actually makes a hose specifically designed to attach to the exhaust of a car. It's made with a high temp cone that just sticks on the tail pipe. Then just shove the other end in the squirrel hole and start the car.
My wife bought one. It didn't work. Or other squirrels moved in. Either way, we still had the problem.
Then I set my son up with a Beeman air rifle. He's bagged about 10 of the little buggers. We still have them occasionally, but they're a lot less. He keeps the gun by the back door.

Besides the grey squirrels I have a red squirrel I never seen before. I have one chipmunk at the bird feeder I named him Forest, like in Forest Gump, like run Forest run, he's fast but he won't last long with the red dot lazer trained outside cats. He's in a world of hurt and doesn't know it yet.
One minute I have up to six grey squirrels at the bird feeders the next minute none go figure. My neighbor says he seen a fisher cat in the neighborhood. That's the fastest North American tree climbing mammal.
The wild turkeys showed up. One day she had three turkey chicks now she has one, again go figure. It's natures way of thinning the herd or gaggle. I have had 30 turkeys here at onetime. So there are plenty of them.
Heard a barn owl. "Who cooks for you" he says. Neat, I love wildlife.
One of my tamed feral cats sleeps with me lately. My health isn't good maybe he senses something.
