I do not feel it works as well as promoted...chipmunks, raccoon, squirrels, etc have made my bulbs a buffet :(

If it hasn't gotten rid of rabbits, chipmunks, and other rodents in my yard then I would have to say no, but who knows it may or may not work on groundhogs, good luck!

It would have to be a small rat they are designed for Chipmunks and mice they sell larger ones for Rats

I use it for mice all the time, works great. They usually spend the night in the trap, eat all the bait, usually ricotta, canned cat food, or any other bait that will easily "stick" to the trigger. I'm not sure if it would be big enough for a "large" chipmunk, but for smaller ones, I think it would work OK. If your Chips are on the larger side, Havahart makes a larger version that would probably work for either mice, or chipmunks. I highly recommend Havahart traps. They're a little tricky to arm till you get the hang of it, but it doesn't take long, and after that, your mouse problem is simply a matter of time. I use it for mice all the time, works great.

I have not seen chipmunks on it and we have a herd in the yard. It hangs quite a way from the tree so I don't think they could jump to it and they cannot hold on to the cylinder. Hope this helps. Nancy

I have used it primarily for deer but I also try to deter the chipmunks and squirrels. It does work for a little while but when it wears out or it rains they go digging again. Same thing for the deer. You have to keep applying often.

I used the Classic model for chipmunks and caught many. Unfortunately, I left it in the rain one day and now it is kaput.

that I couldn't tell you, we (luckily)don't have any of those this year (yet).. It does however say on the box that it works on critters like squirrels and groundhogs, so it might work on gophers. When we had gophers in the past we used moth balls and put them down their holes.

I don't know about chipmunks but my black birds have gotten quite clever. They clean this feeder outer too quickly.

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.

It's made for rats and mice; a chipmunk falls within that size range, so i guess it could; but i'm really just guessing. Good luck!

Not sure about shrews. Probable work with the proper bait and if the animal is long enough to get across both contact plates at once. It's been great for chipmunks, got 16 of them in the 9 days it was outside.

Used it to deter mice in the attic...both chipmunks and mice are rodents...could work. May have to reapply it fairly often if used outside...q 2-3 days, maybe. Not harmful just a deterrent..I like that aspect.

I do not have any chipmunks around but I believe it would keep those out also, if not placing a squirrel guard around the pole should work.

Here's our answer for the chipmunk issue - they generally are not as crafty as squirrels, and will try to get at the feeder from the ground. So, a if yours hangs on a shepherds hook or pole, you can buy narrow tube like (look like rockets) metal baffles that attach at the pole level and stops chipmunks from shimmying up the pole. It works very well.

Hello. I purchased this unit to drive strays from my backyard. (Which didn't work by the way). There aren't any deers, squirrels or chipmunks where I live so I'm unable to comment. But according to the yard sentinel website, this device is designed to repel both domestic and wild animals.

Absolutely. You must dig a tightly fitting pit for the trap down to the floor of their tunnel leaving both ends unobstructed. If you dig the pit too wide they will simply dig through the loose earth and go around it. Make sure you leave the way through the trap as the path of least resistance. I usually put a brick or some other weight on top to weigh the trap down while being very careful not to inhibit the traps mechanism when tripped. Do what you can to block as much light as possible without snagging the trap's arms. I use pieces of black garbage bag plastic pegged to the ground with whatever I have around at the time (rocks, big nails, staples cut from coat hanger wire, small "Y" shaped trigs, etc..) The trap also works for chipmunks (2 so far) or anything else that runs through tunnels in the ground or holes in the wall. Good hunting.
