(Inspired by d. kurz) What to do about chipmunks??

[shep]

I just stepped outside and seen this little guy darting around...
Scared me briefly....lol
Neighborhood cats aren't keeping up...

Pray for a hawk! We were over run with the brazen little things! Granted when they first came they were cute but boy can they multiply! Then they loved our garage...we did have several stray cats that thinned out the population. Never could catch the cats though! (we have a larged wooded area behind us) Then a hawk started to come around....problem solved!

Start a musical trio and put out a Christmas album?

My first thought was much more gross. I thought "run over them and them shellack them and mount them on a plaque". I worked at a National Park concession when I was in college. We had one hanging in the dorm. He was called "Chippie" any represented all his chipmunk friends. "Chippie" got blamed for any and everything that went wrong.

PS - Chippie was found in a parking lot - he was not purposely killed to become art!

 

[faith]

They can be very destructive. Friends resorted to a BB gun.

Oh Boy!!! I inspired a thread!!

And just to add to it....I grew up a city kid and my only experience with chipmunks was Alvin, Simon and Theodore. When I actually SAW my first chipmunk at a state park campground I thought it was a REALLY cute mouse!! I thought chipmunks were the size of a racoon!! DUH!!!

Get some more cats! But be humane! At least that's what they told ME!!!
