Even if your pets aren’t interested in hunting, their very presence could serve to scare the chipmunks off.Cats have been known to present their owners with their catch, both alive and dead.
But this part is extremely important. I have had problems with moles and rabbits digging and eating, the rabbits especially like crocus! My fabricator came out with a tiny bottle of what looked like super glue to fill the holes. I do believe you can do honed if that's your preference. To encourage them onto your property, create an owl box as an easy-to-use nesting spot.Using plywood, nail together a box that has the dimensions of 38”x18”x12”. This pace keeps up, the garden may survive the summer.Ok, this will be my last update but I am amazed at the effectiveness of the "chipper dipper". You can encourage natural removal of chipmunks by introducing more of their prey near your property and allowing nature to take its course. Snap traps aren’t considered humane, and they also require a fast clean-up process. Maybe the gardens, lawn, rock landscaping and bird feeders can get a reprieve and recover now.My Uncle Carl told me about a similar Chipper Dipper, but he uses anti-freeze instead of water. I placed sunflower seeds on the paper, taped the paper around the sides of the bucket so it wouldn't fall in. Patios, stairs, basements, and any well-hidden sites near a house or building will fit a chipmunk’s needs.Being underground protects chipmunks from cats, foxes, skunks, hawks, owls, and snakes. I did a drawing for this part of our front garden. The good news is these small mammals aren’t capable of doing significant harm to your home or yard. That is just to keep the rain out of the electronics on it. Both are omnivores that feed on small insects, fruit, nuts, seeds and plants.Since they’re rarely larger than five inches long and aren’t known to be aggressive, chipmunks usually aren’t a threat to humans or pets. We took your advice and dove in and just got rid of the weeds. I use sunflower seeds in the trap placed on a plastic butter tub lid - they go crazy for the seeds! I put a white sheet of paper over the bucket, cut from the inside-out like you would a pizza, but not all the way to the edge....so that if a chipmunk stepped on the paper, it'd fall through the wedge-shaped cuts to the center of the bucket. All I see are more off shoots of burrows from the current large hole.The infamous "chipper dipper" has claimed two chipmunk lives within the first 24 hours of operation. READ IT FROM A GARDEINING BOOK AND IT WORKS.Another who has had no problems with the chipmonks......they are cute little beasts....who don't chew into the house, don't eat my potted plants ( but they do bury seeds in the pots)....the biggest bother is that my toy poodle thinks they are kin and always has her nose looking for one.I never heard of chipmunks burrowing holes. I have been re-doing my yard and we have trimmed the trees to thin out the canopy for more light.
i can catch 4 per day at times if i really keep checking the trap. This is likely the only time homeowners would see chipmunks during the colder months, and the young are born in April or May.The second breeding season occurs during summer – often during July and August – and the females give birth in early fall.Chipmunk females usually produce two to eight young per litter, more than replenishing the population. Next we watered and killed off the weeds over the period of 6 weeks. We also had two chipmunk casualties this weekend with the trusty old Daisy Pumpmaster 760. Thanks.I've done the chipper dipper, but with a modification because they seemed to sense the water and wouldn't go in (I watched from a window). I have holes in my lawn from them but get fed up with it every few weeks & have to rig the 'chipper dipper' to eradicate them. Food gathering takes on greater speed in the fall as chipmunks prepare for colder weather.As winter begins, so does a kind of hibernation. Like all mammals, chipmunks have their own internal clocks and a primal knowledge of the seasons. And in some areas after a foot or so I hit hardpan. I don't want to pass my 'problem' along to anyone else, so I think I will try the chipper dipper method. Drain lines to road etc too." Even if you’re comfortable performing chipmunk treatment methods on your own, a trained professional could still take care of the infestation quickly and more efficiently. I dislike having to kill them but I dislike more having them dig up my yard & flowers. That made a significant dent in the chipmunk population. Looking for ideas form using thumpers, hardware cloths etc as I dig up the walkway and replay the bricks. More water in home? Took 3 weeks worth of trash pickups! Place a board, I use a 2X4 about 3' long, & prop it against the side of the bucket like a "walk the plank". Crp. Chipmunks don’t actually sleep throughout the cold months, however. Then pick an area to have a much smaller rectangle or circle of grass that has some sunlight coming through. BettyAs everybody has suggested already it would be good to try a safe, 100% organic, natural repellent to protect your garden from pest critters. The squirrels around my house cause more damage then the chipmunks do.
i just kill the boogers, but do what you like with them.

There are definitely concerns with using live traps for chipmunks which are explained in greater detail below. To prevent your pets or other animals from getting into the trap, cut a hole in a cardboard box that is only large enough for a chipmunk and set the box over the trap. Pour sunflower seed on the water about 1" thick to cover the water. I understand killing a fly, a mosquito, even a spider but really a chipmunk! "Chipper Dipper" is most efficient and effective method yet. This will help them find exactly where the chipmunk burrows are and if they’re posing a threat to your home. Have a nice dayðÂÂÂYa Chipee's like the Vietcong digging tunnels all over my yard. You have to water 3 times a day to help the sod set roots.
