I'm hoping to put in raised beds for some vegetables this season. I only have one problem...

Our yard is home to the biggest ol' woodchuck you'd ever want to see, and he's a very hungry guy. Every one of my neighbors has tried to live trap and relocate this fella without success. And my neighbor who has rather high raised beds (I'd guess the walls are about 18" high at least) still suffered major damage to his veggie crops thanks to Mr. Woodchuck. (He caught him going at the beds once, so we know the damage wasn't caused by deer. Plus we don't have many deer wandering around this particular neighborhood.)

Has anyone had any success using using edging plants or other repellents to chase off woodchucks? Tips appreciated!
