Have you succeeded in keeping chipmunks outta your veggie plants?

[i][c=BF0080]Please share what helped if anything!

I have absolutely had it. Last year I bought cayenne and citrus stick on things and they helped, but the little b*stards would still get in some plants. This year I loaded them with cayenne and the little sh*ts are digging holes EVERY day in my plants. I鈥檓 so tired of it 馃槨 I thought maybe something kinda sharp might help scare them away, so I broke large shish kabob sticks and dug them into those plants. Hopefully that helps. I don鈥檛 wanna use chemicals near my plants 馃槱

The holes are hard to see on the pics, they were much deeper than they appear and these are only some. [/c][/i]

Yard panther.
Be aware though...my panther enjoys bringing in the critters as gifts.

@MellyMel22 he is. But don't tell him that. He believes himself to be a lethal weapon馃檪

@Carla My yard panther's chipmunk death toll for June stands at 22 as of this morning, plus one squirrel. I have no idea where he found all of them, but I have yet to see or hear a chipmunk in the past week or two. He also tries to bring them in, and failing that, leaves them at the door for me to take care of once he's done playing with them.

@windinhishair i have a doogy door. So i never know what i might find. But, it is always important to look. Buster the dog feels it is fun to hide easy's prey in places like dirty clothes baskets, his toy box and his spot under the couch.
Ive had some unpleasant experiences. 馃槙

22! No wonder you don't hear them!

@Carla There were a couple of mornings I went outside and he had three waiting for me. And then he comes trotting across the yard with a fourth hanging from his mouth and wanted in. No way!

@windinhishair he's a proud and efficient kitty.
Does yours eat their faces off? Easy does that, to everything he gets.
I think it is payback for trying to bite him back.

@Carla He's a good boy. I mean, just look at him!

Mine will eat the heads off sometimes. Every once in awhile he eats most of one and leaves the rest, but probably 18 of the 22 were intact and recently killed within a few hours.

@windinhishair he is a good boy. Very independent. He spends most of his time outdoors. Comes in to eat, get a little attention and maybe a warm or cool nap(depending on the season).
Fourteen and he still acts a young man
