Default groundhog (woodchuck)

I'm in central Indiana living in a suburb and I have a groundhog living under my minibarn (12X16). It is built on runners but sits close to the ground. I am trying to have the groundhog (or them) trapped but I need to know what I can do to keep others from living there next week or next year.

We tried moth balls to help repell them, but I'm not sure that's effective.

Any suggesstions would be appreciated.
Thanks

A dog helps.

You could put it on a slab with a 24" rat wall around it.

Once the hole is filled in and this one is gone you should be ok. At work I battle the same problem frequently, once gone I have not had any of the old holes occupied. How many are you seeing out in the day just one?

Light a smoke bomb and throw it in the hole.
