I am having a problem with chipmunks in my vegetable garden do these work?

I usually have squirrels, but I have not seen any since I started using Sweeney's Solar Mole spike. It's strange because I have a large walnut tree in the yard.

I do not have a chipmunk problem but it works GREAT for squirrels and I feel confident that it will prevent chipmunks from climbing the pole. I will caution that squirrels will drop down from a branch above the feeder if possible. I thought I had pruned the branches far enough but had to prune a little more as they were making quite a lengthy jump to get to the feeders. I have watched them and they will stand at the bottom and look up then jump on the pole and look some more then finally just give up and go back to scavenging for dropped morsels under the bird feeders.

I have never seen a chipmunk try to get food out of a bird feeder, and we don't have chipmunks, so can't say. However, yesterday my wife asked if I would buy her another bird feeder. We are both enjoying all of the birds that have now discovered the feeder. The biggest problem I see with these bird feeders is all the bird food you have to buy to keep them full to feed the birds!

Not sure, I might use a formal electric rat trap, the chipmunks might get stuck in this machine.

All we ever caught were chipmunks. The squirrel seem to be too smart. As long as the rabbits are small there probably would be no problem. It's up to you to evaluate the rabbits and check the size of the trap. If not the next size up maybe sufficient, but the trap itself does work.

They may; I have caught one ground squirrel in my Cinch traps. He barely fit. They work well with pocket gophers. Stan

I'm sure it will, I put it in my bird seed that was up on a pole, but, it definitely kept the squirrels away. Add more to spice up the seed, I'm sure the chipmunks won't like that.

I use black sunflower seeds to trap squirrels and chipmunks in Havaheart live traps and then transport them to the State forest. You have to keep this up until you lower the critter population. It may not be legal to do this in your area so you may want to check and make sure. In the past seven years I have trapped over 200 critters. This is the only way you will solve your problem unless you have a few stray cats, fox, hawks or coyotes like we have that help control the population. Small red squirrels and chipmunks are the biggest culprits when it comes to property damage.

I have not caught a chipmunk but I have caught a rat that was much larger than a chipmunk. I would think that it will work fine for chipmunks! I have a neighbor that has caught a squirrel too so fairly confident about the chipmunk.

Haven"t tried it on chipmunks but seems to work well on squirrels, small dogs and cats. I"ve only had it up a few days, but notice a big difference already.

I do not have a chipmunk problem but hopefully it would deter them as well as it does for squirrels. I'm impressed at how well this works with squirrels.

I can tell you that it kept squirrels, rabbits, and any other such animals out of my vegetable garden. I had sprayed around the "borders" of my garden, and then misted the leaves of the various vegetable plants with it. My veggies were undisturbed, while those of my neighbors were ravaged. I would "guess" that it would have a similar effect on gophers. We had chipmunks in the neighborhood, but they didn't bother my garden.

I didn't have any "critters" even try to climb up into it - I'm sure that tall animals like a deer would be able to nibble, but the small ones like chipmunks didn't even try. I did have one chipmunk who kept running across my deck though - the tomato plants backed up to my deck and he was eating any tomato he could find through the deck slats. I would think if you are concerned, you could put something like chicken-wire on the inside edges before you add your garden dirt.

though I don't have chipmunks, I think it might. It would depend on the thickness of you pole. I don't think the chipmunks could get through the hole at the center. I little modification would probably prevent.

Nope. Only non-edibles / ornamental plantings. Besides, its been completely ineffective for me on porcupines, chipmunks, woodchucks. The third party amazon people wouldn't issue refund because I couldn't return the product (obviously since I had to apply it to see if it worked!); and Bonide has yet to respond to refund (I bought numerous bags to keep re-applying because it says to be patient and re-apply... Well, 3 bags later, my plants still got chowed down! So: direct answer - No. Additional info: don't waste your money on this product anyway - unless you're lucky and have less obnoxious, more re-trainable, critters than the ones here! Nope.

Well, some squirrels do tuck but you'll never get them to come out of the closet with that. The squirrels in my yard made their own openings in the underpants. They are quite talented with much jealousy from the chipmunks. (But you never heard that from me.) If it's one thing one does not want to do is piss off a chipmunk. They hold grudges for years. (and they have ways of getting into your house.)

This should work for chipmunks because they are about the same size as rats. I've only caught rats and mice, but I have neighbors that have used this trap for chipmunks. The only problem is that this is not designed to use outside, so you'll need to place it where it is dry. I think the dog kibbles should work fine as bait...I don't like things that are messy.
