Check underneath any outdoor patios or stairs for other holes as well.
Chipmunks may dig through the dirt to get into their burrows again. Check your yard every day to see if any of the holes have reappeared.
Gravel can be purchased at any home and garden or landscaping store.
Only use concrete in areas where you don’t want to plant. Grass may not regrow in areas where you used concrete to fill in chipmunk holes.
Avoid using a chainlink fence since chipmunks will be able to squeeze through the holes. For added protection, you can bury mesh 2 in (5. 1 cm) deep along the fence line.
Live chipmunk traps can be purchased at lawncare stores or online. Check with your local Department of Natural Resources to see if trapping chipmunks is legal in your area.
Coyote or fox urine can be purchased from yard care stores or online. The urine also can be purchased in granular form.
Don’t overfill your bird feeders since many seeds will fall to the ground and give chipmunks food.
If you don’t have any pets, you can also place a fake owl in your yard to scare chipmunks. If you use a fake owl, move it every day so it seems that it’s alive.
Look for broken siding on your exterior walls or shingles on your roof. Chipmunks may climb up and find ways to enter your home.
Once concrete is applied, it can be sanded and painted.
Mesh sheets can be purchased from your local hardware store. Make sure the material you use is breathable so gases and liquids can still pass through it.
