Knowing how to get rid of chipmunks can prevent these cute critters from invading your yard. When I say chipmunks, you're probably thinking of the comedic trio from Disney’s Alvin and the Chipmunks, or maybe Chip n’ Dale. However, in real life, opinions of chipmunks are a little different than Disney makes out.
While indeed cute and fluffy, these mammals can quickly turn into a pest should one find its way into your yard, much like squirrels. Their burrows can damage flowerbeds as well as foliage, leaving a mess behind as they forage. The good news is that there are ways to deal with chipmunks without hurting them.
