    What does one do with a live trapped woodchuck? And what does one use for bait?
    I’ve never used a live trap in my life just curious I guess

    One of my former neighbors at the lake would "float test" everything he caught in a live trap. :whistle:

    Click that YouTube web link to see what I did with it after trapped. Went to a local state game lands.
    I could see signs of digging from under a newly placed plastic pallet so I set the trap up in a way whatever it was had to walk through. No bait.

    It’s lucky I saw it before before cutting. Barely bigger than a nightcrawler

    In my house and potentially chewing on wiring, yup. Traps set.
    Out in the woods away from the house, their turf. They live.
    Long enough to feed a snake perhaps.
    But not by my hand.
