Chipmunks get behind vinyl siding.

If you have vinyl siding on your home you need to close the entrance door that mice use. Chipmunks are among the smallest members of the squirrel family. No they are driving you nuts and that is the key to getting rid of them. There are 3 main types of siding.

The common north american ground squirrel aka chipmunk go for nuts. Inexpensive and simple to do sealing your siding only requires a little time to locate the cracks. Stoops are like a rodent magnet. These stupid little things get into everything.

I purchased some steel wool and spray foam and used them to plug these gaps. I ve noticed chipmunks climbing up the corners of my house underneath the corner cap of my vinyl siding. You will want to stick your fingers behind the bottom row of siding and run them along the entire perimeter of the home. The corner piece is called the corner post and it is an open runway for mice to go directly into your attic.

You ask where is the door. So get yourself some live traps bait them with acorns and catch yourself a rock group. Well the door is at the bottom of the outside corners of your home. Here is where i mean.

Each one has its own vulnerabilities. They create extravagant burrows sometimes reaching more than 30 feet long. I am now realizing that this might prevent water from draining out of these corners. Under the bottom row of siding.

Chipmunks mice and rats always try to inhabit these areas. The trap is easy to make you take a five gallon bucket fill it 3 4 with water and float the top of the water with sunflower seeds you then have a plank of wood go over the edge of bucket to give the chipmunks access they jump in to get the sun flower seeds and they cant get out empty bucket frequently it took two days for me to catch my first.
