Bullitt County, Kentucky
Humane trapping, complete burrow remediation, and long-term prevention — with same-week service for Shepherdsville properties.
Why Shepherdsville Has a Groundhog Problem
Shepherdsville and the Salt River valley are classic groundhog country. The river's floodplain soils are deep and easy to dig, the mix of pasture, woodlot, and residential development provides everything woodchucks need, and Bullitt County's rapid growth means new subdivisions are being built directly on top of long-established groundhog territory.
Our Shepherdsville work ranges from single burrows under suburban decks off Highway 44 to multi-animal removals on small farms and horse properties, where burrow openings in pasture are a genuine leg-injury risk for livestock. We also serve the warehouse and distribution corridor along I-65, where groundhogs burrow beneath fence lines, trailer pads, and detention basin banks.

Shepherdsville Groundhog Removal Questions
Groundhog holes are appearing in my horse pasture near Shepherdsville. What are my options?
Pasture burrows are a serious animal-safety issue — a horse stepping into a burrow opening at speed can suffer catastrophic leg injury. We trap and remove the resident groundhogs, then fill and compact every entrance and marked tunnel collapse. For larger acreage we map all openings with flags first so nothing gets missed, and offer seasonal re-inspection.
Do you serve rural properties and farms in Bullitt County?
Yes — rural Bullitt County is a core part of our service area. Farm calls often involve multiple animals and larger burrow networks than suburban jobs, so we typically run multi-trap sets over several days. We're respectful of livestock, gates, and farm operations while we work.
