Without a doubt, groundhogs look non-threatening to the average Joe. However, to large property owners and farmers, they can be a potential threat. These rodents are capable of running a sizable piece of land, The intricate network of tunnels they burrow can compromise crop growth and wreak havoc on infrastructure. If left unchecked, these groundhogs turn a well-kept pasture or field into a chaotic blend of unstable soil and dangerous holes. The best solution: An effective, scalable, natural groundhog repellent for farms and large properties.
“Order online today!” It’s that simple. At Groundhog Repellent, we strive to solve agricultural and pest problem issues for all homesteaders and property managers. However, with large suburban plots of land comes the need for a more long lasting, efficient, and pest-free solution. Unlike small backyards, wide-open spaces tend to need strong repellents that work for extended periods. That’s why we provide a weather-resistant, safe for crops, animals and eco-friendly, long lasting barrier solution.
Why Groundhogs Can Be a Problem for Farms
Groundhogs have an impressive digging ability of carving out tunnels that may stretch over 30 feet long. Their tunnels pose a myriad of problems on farms. Their tunnels destroy crops roots, endanger animals by creating tripping hazards, and erode the infrastructures of buildings, fences, and irrigation eyeing structures. Not only do groundhogs dig burrows, but they are also heavy feeders who consume a wide variety of crops including vegetables, legumes, alfalfa, and soybeans.
Being territorial, a single adult groundhog could dominate a large portion of your land, but the complications don’t end there. Others may try to move in and within a short span of weeks, your farmland could be overrun with multiple burrow entrances leading to significant crop devastation.
While fencing is an option, it can be extraordinarily expensive and often unfeasible for vast lands. Setting traps is incredibly laborious, requiring new ‘traps’ to be set over and over again. Using poison can lead to deaths of pets, livestock, or local fauna. What large farms and properties require is efficient groundhog repellents that will not harm the environment or the creatures that inhabit the area, but will deter groundhogs from setting up camp permanently.
What Makes Groundhog Repellent Effective for Large Properties
The effectiveness of controlling large areas relies on a balance of strength, duration, and ease of use. A repellent solution designed for smaller gardens will not work effectively on a five-acre plot. This is why we created a repellent that meets the specific needs of agricultural and rural customers at Groundhog Repellent.
Essential oils like peppermint and garlic oil make up part of a natural deterrent blend with high potency. It is specially designed to exploit the groundhog’s sense of taste and smell. Groundhogs will abandon a region if it no longer suits their needs. The active ingredients make the area unattractive and uncomfortable for groundhogs, which actively prompts them to leave.
This formula has weatherproofing abilities, meaning it withstands rain and irrigation. The repellent clings to soil, crops, and outbuildings. These substantial protective features ensure no daily reapplication, which preserves time and effort in expansive areas.
Groundhog Repellent sells in bulk containers and gallon sizes, which makes them easier to use in hose-end sprayers and tractor-mounted systems. This feature allows rapid and thorough treatment on multi-acre land sites, including field borders, barn foundations, and pasture edges.
Above all else, our repellent doesn’t endanger the safety of livestock, crops, or the ecosystem, so you can use it freely around feeding areas, animal enclosures, vegetable beds, and even water sources without any constraints.
Guidelines For Use For Best Coverage
With large properties, application strategy is very important. Address highly populated groundhog areas first. These are usually active around the outskirts of crop fields, close to barns or sheds, and near tree lines and water areas. Once you’ve identified burrow entrances or active tunnels, spray around and directly into the openings.
Next, apply the repellent around the border of the field or property to create a barrier. This will stop new groundhogs from invading the area after the initial ones have been driven out.
For active infestations, it is best to apply the repellent for the first month every 10 -14 days, then reduce the application frequency as the activity subsides. After heavy rain, reapply in areas that receive a lot rainfall to maintain effectiveness.
From handheld to large-scale broadcast sprayers, our repellent can be used with various spraying equipment, allowing for flexibility depending on the size and layout of the property.
