Groundhogs will eat a garden quicker than a family of deer. If you don't fence plan on feeding them. They are difficult to live trap but conibear traps work well over active burrows. They feed during daylight hours so they are easy to pattern. I've found the 11AM to 2PM time frame is a good time to set up and wait. They are smart and spook very easily. Lead from 30 yards out does the job.
