My husband needed something in the little storage room at the back of our garage the other day.
We rarely use it, but the woodchucks certainly do.
.
.
It was all he could do to open the door…
.
.
And even that required a shovel.
.
.
From one little access point, they sure did make a mess.
.
.
Once things were removed we found this:
.
.
Tiny shredded strips of a tarp that used to be whole.
.
.
An entire morning was spent putting things right.
.
.
And not without my husband spouting a few choice words for our furry little digging friends.
.

River's world..... 
I never met a woodchuck and I can I’m glad we don’t have them. Our backyard bobcat is much easier.

I’m surprised he did not put in a cement floor.

This building was here when we moved in and we don’t really use it.
Besides, if there was a floor the chuck would just burrow under it.

We get mice in the shed and they thoroughly pig me off. Those critters look like dogs with rodent teeth. Think I’d concrete the whole garden!

Well, I think I’d still take your chuckers over our rats. At least they didn’t store nuts in the walls?

Roof rats are the worst. I have the washer and dryer outside here in Az. and they ate all of the wires on the washer a couple of years back. I hate those things!!!!

My teeny back yard has tons of skunk pits. I think one provides access under the house but haven’tbothered to check.

We have a family of four skunks. They go under our barn but don’t dig like the chucks.

Mine dig holes but seem to only stay in them when they’re young. Twofront yard under-house crawlspace screens are totally gone, providing shelter for cats, so I don’t really care if ctitters made a shortcut.

Chipmunks were the first critters I noticed under our shed, than squirrels (not that common here in Mesa) and the squirrels chewed up the floor and took up residence in the shed. Haven’t seen the squirrels in awhile but something broke a window in the door and now we have a couple of cats, so I give up, I think it’s just time to take it down and start over.

Once critters pick a spot it can be hard to persuade them to leave.
