the darn buggers will take one bite out of everything in your veggie garden. Wouldn't be bad if they just ate one thing complete but they like to sample and move on. Find the burrow, hope for only 1 entrance, jam a hose down it and flood them out and wait at the entrance with a pellet gun and a shot to the noggin. Stinks killing anything but they are too destructive. A free ranging dog at home will usually keep them away too. Under a shed will be tough. Maybe a smoke bomb to drive them out. Day time is normal. I see them along the highway a lot eating stuff. On a porch is not normal.
