We set up a bucket last fall a 10 gallon half full of water and floated striped sunflower seeds on top. “Caught” 27 chipmunks and about a dozen squirrels and many mice. Set up up against a firewood stack so they had to reach down to get at the seeds. We were overrun. They don’t bother the garden but chipmunks had gotten into the house under the floorboards.

My Yellow Lab, Miss Lucy, brought a live Chippie into the house once. And then, of course, it got away from her.
*Rolleyes* We never did find the remains...
My current cats spend HOURS chasing Chippies; those Chippies will put up a FIGHT, that’s for sure. They don’t go down easily, LOL! (One cat has a bite on her face from the Chippie she was ‘playing with’ earlier this week.)
