 They are kind of cute but after what they did to my front yard last year, I am much more aware of their destructive nature. Clearly, we still have not figured out how to get rid of them. One of the recommended ways was to get fox urine powder and put it around. I don't want to think about the process of making that stuff and never stop being amused at stuff you can buy on the internet. Our chipmunks turned out braver than we thought and completely ignored our attempts to get rid of them. :)

They sure are cute tho. I'm sorry they are such a pest. If I were a chipmunk and got a whif of fox urine, I think I'd be pretty scarce around that place. Good luck! But it sure is a cute photo!

Had one of these as a pet when I was a kid. Very cute.

yes, they are adorable, yet very destructive. I myself never could do them any harm. Fox urine won't hurt them and should get them to go away.

Well, if it's the front yard that hosts all those glorious flowers, I'd be getting rid of the little buggers too. Cute or not! :)

I think maybe you need a cat. This is a cute little varmit, but a cat would be even more photogenic!

Aawww, they are so cute. I know they terrorized my aunt for years. Good luck in relocating them!

It always cracks me up how much they can stuff in their pouches. Nice soft focus on everything but the subject. Well done.

They multiply like mice.. I had the same problem and bought a Have-a-Heart trap @ the hardware store for around $20... This way u can catch them and remove them from your property.. They say you are suppose to take them at least 5mi. away...
They have very destructive habbits. The limit was the casing on the basement door chewed a hole in the wood to come in.. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!
