I have a problem with chipmunks. They are burrowing under the patio. How do I catch them? Will a rat trap work.

Yes, but I prefer #0 jumps on my Chipmunk line.


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

get yourself a 5 gallon bucket and fill halfway- now go get yourself a back of Giant sunflower seeds, the ones the Ball players use- cover surface with seeds, put board down to go on and over bucket next morning fish out chipmunk

I always used a small live trap with some peanuts in there. But I imagine a rat trap would work

I Declared war on chipmunks this strawberry season. Used the plastic jaw rat traps. Got up 31 before harvesting was done. Caught quite a few mice and voles as well. Least crop damage so far.

What bait for voles ? I've got them and they're not bad until the badgers come for dinner.

Agree Green Bay.
Weasel Box with Rat trap
I do like to tie Peanut (in shell) to pan. A little cracked corn outside.
Cracked corn on lip on entrance hole- if this corn is gone, will help indicate a catch.
