I am starting to clean up my dad's barn, but its infested with critters. They appear to be either the groundhog that lives UNDER the barn, or possibly raccoons, possums, or all three. Poop everywhere, stuff destroyed, etc.
Any ideas for how to make them not want to take shelter there? I really dont want stinky stuff like predator pee, etc. Im thinking something that makes noise at random intervals.
And its out in the country, so trap and release doesnt work. More show up soon afterward. I need a set and forget repellent that makes them want to leave as soon as they hear it and never come back.
Suggestions?
and sealing up the holes isnt really effective. Dad didnt finish it so there are sections where there are exposed fiberboard that they can easily chew through, and also parts where the holes arent readily accessible to patch. I need to get them out, clean it out, THEN patch the holes from the inside. And cleaning is no small task. There are at least two big roll-offs of junk in there.
