They are all over our house and yard. I'd appreciate any specifics on
how to prevent, control or otherwise get rid of them!

Thanks in advance!

This does actually create a funny visual. I'v never heard of this.
Sounds like a g-rated horror movie. :-P

IMHO: with any plague, I wonder if I crossed God wrong, once I'm done
with that, I move on to eliminating the vermins food supply. Do you
have bird feeders, or some other source of food for these little
buggers?


We always have a few chipmunks around the bird feeder. But I see them all
over, even running across the road as I drive along. Our cat is old and
lazy but seems to snack on one every few days. But they are still there.

I came from Pittsburgh, PA and we had lots of chipmunks there but we didn't
have squirrels. I was amazed to see squirrels but no chipmunks when I
arrived in the Boston area in 1959. Now we have both in Boston. But that
feline won't even think about squirrels.
