Chipmunk Damage Identification

Understanding Chipmunks and the Damage they Can Cause.

Chipmunks – A  Pesky Nuisance

Chipmunk damage identification can be made by looking for holes in your yard and garden. Chipmunks’ diets consist primarily of grains, nuts, berries, flower bulbs, seeds, and mushrooms. They cause problems when they eat tender plant shoots and leaves. Chipmunks naturally dig looking for roots and tubers, ruining landscapes by digging holes around your lawn and gardens. You will often find chipmunks gathering seeds from underneath bird feeders. When present in large numbers, chipmunk damage can also cause structural problems by burrowing under patios, stairs, retention walls, or foundations. Most often chipmunks are simply a nuisance.

How to Identify Chipmunk Damage

Look closely for chipmunk damage identification – it can often be mistaken for squirrels or voles. Damage may occur in your lawn and gardens due to pilfering chipmunks uprooting your plants and flowers.

Other Signs of Chipmunk Damage
