Epsom salts can be sprinkled on the vegetation and fruits of your garden plants to render them foul-tasting to groundhogs.

But the bad news is that rain will wash off the Epsom salts, meaning that you will need to make repeated applications. Another strategy that suffers from the same drawback is discouraging groundhogs with foul-smelling agents such as ammonia. Ammonia-soaked rags can be strewn along the perimeter of your garden, forming a stinky barrier to repel groundhogs. But even ammonia's smell fades eventually and a re-application will be necessary.

Thanks for the info. Turns out I had some fox urine powder here so I will give that a try.
