I have eliminated over 18 groundhogs in my backyard garden over a three year time period. I have 2 apple trees in yard and use them for bait; I use the ones usually that have fallen or are blemished. Once in the trap, I have used Red Badger"s method above, but have had better success with a .22 using Sub-Sonic ammo. If you are worried about neighbors calling the law, wait til they go off to work or late in evening. Sub-Sonic ammo is quieter than a balloon popping. I have also been known to put the .22 in a beach umbrella bag, so one sees the weapon.
Another method is to break up some glass into real small shards and mix up with cheap grape jelly, with an apple or two on top.
My garden has been saved for three years now.
