🐿️ Now is the perfect time to safely and humanely relocate chipmunks from your property in Ohio!
Chipmunks may look cute, but they can dig extensive burrows that weaken foundations, patios, and basement steps—costing you money in repairs if left unchecked.
A few things to know:
✔️ Territorial – Chipmunks usually keep to a small area and won’t overrun your yard.
✔️ Low reproduction rate – They typically have just one or two litters a year, with only a few pups per season.
✔️ Easy to deter – With the right steps, you can keep them from damaging your property.
Safe Relocation Tips:
1. Place live traps near burrow entrances, garden edges, or stone walls where chipmunks are active.
2. Use irresistible baits like sunflower seeds, peanut butter, or apple slices.
3. Check traps frequently and relocate chipmunks at least 5 miles away in a wooded or natural area to prevent return.
