Environmental methods.
Homes with wooded lots, thickets of ornamental shrubbery and dry rock walls are attractive to chipmunks. This habitat can be made less attractive to the animals by altering the pattern of natural and ornamental plantings. However, most people value their trees and shrubs too highly for drastic modification of the landscape, and may opt to tolerate the chipmunks as a part of the natural community.

Chipmunk Removal.
Though chipmunks are protected, they may be trapped when they cause property damage. Live trapping with small commercial or homemade box traps can reduce their numbers. Once trapped, they should be released at least a mile from the capture area.

Mechanical methods.
Chipmunks will occasionally enter homes where they are generally more bothersome than destructive. Their entry can be prevented by closing holes in foundation walls, and by screening windows, vents and other ground-level openings.

Pesticides.
Pesticides are not suggested for use to control Chipmunks. Call Westchester Wildlife for Chipmunk removal and prevention.
