    Nothing, sorry.

    Lure them away with other food. Or set up a trap that won't harm them but will scare them away. Or make something scary like a scarecrow but will scare groundhogs. My last suggestion is that you put a fence of some sort around your garden so that groundhogs can't get through and eat your veggies.

    Hope this helps! I haven't be a member for long but I still hope you take my suggestion.

    Since you're living somewhere else and probably don't want to invest in a nice fence, maybe just some simple chicken wire would keep Lucy out for now.

    My grandma use to spread her dog's fur around her garden to keep deer away. Maybe it'd work with groundhogs to? And if you don't have a dog, just go over and shave the neighbor's dog or something.

    Try to hang some of those tin pie plates. Or get you a milk jug and put some dried beans in it for noise! If this doesn't work you may have to shot them! Good luck!
