I think the burrows in my lawn (see attached pic) are chipmunk holes. Roughly golf ball width. Can anybody confirm and suggest a remedy. Google suggests a fake owl and peppermint/eucalyptus/garlic smells will drive them away without having to trap or kill them. Would that work? Any other ideas please?? |

| My research seems to indicate that chipmunks are rare in North Florida and not by you at all. You might have some type of rat or other rodent. Rodney Wilcox Jones, my idol! Businessman, Orchid grower, hybridizer, lived to 107! |

| OK, thanks BigBill. Other suggestion is a norway rat... Anybody any idea of humane removal please? Bear in mind we have 2 kids, 8 and 4 years old.... |

| In Florida you have wood rats, rice rats, all kinds of rats. Not sure if Norway rats are down that far south or not. Than you have moles and voles and who knows what else! Rodney Wilcox Jones, my idol! Businessman, Orchid grower, hybridizer, lived to 107! |
