me either.. we trapped and released 2 this year.. the one was so big.. it would set the have a heart off.. and somehow back out of it.. over and over... I had to move the trap to different spots around the yard.. took us months to finally get it.. and was very brave.. I have 4 yorkies.. and the thing would just stand there looking at them while they went mental barking at it.. it had to go.. we always take them far far away too.. in the woods where there are no homes for them to destroy someones stuff.. but the chippies make me nuts.. put a seedling in.. they run over it and feel the ground is different.. and dig it up.. the one year I used the sponge plugs .. what a mistake.. dig it up.. I put it in.. dig it up.. I put it in.. 3 weeks later I let it die cause I got sick of it.. now they are trashing all my containers trying to hide there stash.. and yes the yorkies do get the chipmunks now and then.. but not enough of them
