Default Chipmunks

Hi all,
I seem to be having a excessive amount of chipmunks around my house. I
started catching them in my have a heart trap and letting them go about 1
1/2 miles away from my house in a nice wooded area. In the past week I
have caught 6 of them. My father and wife think it's the same ones coming
back again. My wife being the wise girl that she is also says they like
going for a ride in my pickup truck. What do you all think? Is it
possible they are finding their way back to my house? Would it help if
dropped them off farther away? Thanks for reading my post.

If you can handle them, perhaps with leather gloves, you can mark them by
nipping off a chunk of fur.
