Groundhog in My Garden

I thought I had gotten rid of the squirrels in my garden. I was walking through it and noticed that the green beans looked different. Next thing you know a groundhog comes running out of the garden!

I walk over to the peas and green beans and really check it out. Bastard groundhog! Most of the peas are gone and my green beans that had climbed to the top of their poles. Razed. Looks like that fat groundhog was rolling in them and stuffing his face.

I sprinkled Epsom salts around my garden, moved my owls around -- this morning I went out and bought some fox urine spray (the depths have plunged to). It has been raining for most of the day and it is supposed to rain tonight. At $15 a bottle I don't want to go out and spray until the threat of rain has passed.

Now I sit in my house and a sense of unease creeps over me. Is he out there right now, munching away? I get up, check out the garden, sit back down. Then my thoughts wander... now...now is he out there chomping away?

I can see becoming totally psychotic over this....I think I'll go out and check.....
