Chipmunk Removal

When discouraging chipmunks hasn’t worked, it’s time to consider trapping them. Humane trapping and relocating is most effective when you are only dealing with one or two chipmunks. It is a very time consuming task to live trap a forest full of little rodents and relocate them far enough away so that they don’t return. If you choose to live trap, a wire mesh trap with a pressure plate trigger will be the most effective tool to use. Chipmunks are very food-driven. You will not have to leave the trap pre-baited for a few days as with some other animals. Just bait and set, and the next day you will likely have a catch.
