Milagro is a wide field (2 sr) high duty cycle (> 90%) ground based gamma-ray telescope which employs a water Cherenkov detector to observe extensive air showers produced by high energy particles interacting in the Earth's atmosphere. Milagro monitors the northern sky almost continuously in the 100 GeV to 100 TeV energy range and is
therefore ideally suited to search for very high energy (VHE) emission from Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs). We have searched the entire BeppoSAX catalog as
well as an unpublished catalog of Inter-Planetary Network (IPN) GRBs detected since 2000. A total of 25 new bursts were found to have been in the field of view of Milagro during this time. We present the results of our searches for VHE emission from these bursts.
