Why Are Woodchucks Considered a Pest?

Woodchucks may seem harmless, but their digging habits can cause severe damage to residential and commercial properties.

🏠 Structural & Foundation Damage

  • Woodchucks burrow under homes, sheds, decks, and patios, weakening foundations and concrete slabs.
  • Their extensive tunnels can cause soil erosion, leading to unstable ground and cracks in foundations.

🌿 Garden & Lawn Destruction

  • Woodchucks are voracious eaters, they often consume vegetables, flowers, and crops from gardens.
  • Their burrows damage lawns and create hazardous holes, making yards unsafe for walking and mowing.

🚧 Increased Risk of Secondary Pests

  • Abandoned woodchuck burrows can become breeding grounds for skunks, rats, and other pests.
  • Their presence attracts predators like foxes and coyotes to residential areas.

If you notice burrowing activity, plant destruction, or structural damage, Empire Pest & Wildlife can provide expert woodchuck control solutions to protect your property.

Signs of a Woodchuck Infestation

Woodchucks are most active during the day, and their presence can be identified by:

Large Burrow Entrances: Holes 10-12 inches wide near foundations, decks, or gardens.
Mounds of Dirt: Piles of displaced soil near burrow entrances.
Gnawed Plants & Vegetation: Chewed fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants.
Deep Tunnels & Cave-Ins: Depressions in lawns, under patios, and along fences.
Scurrying Rodents During Daylight: Unlike nocturnal pests, woodchucks are often seen during daylight hours.

If woodchucks are damaging your property, professional removal is the best solution.
