Squirels and chipmunks are digging big holes in my backyard lawn. Anybody know why and how I can stop them?

Simple, there is squirrel repellent at any hardware store. It contains fox urine and such which gives the squirrels the scent that there is a predator in the area and they will stay away from wherever you spray it. The stuff costs around 20 dollars for a normal spray bottle but it definitely works.

For chipmunks, there are pellets you can put around to repel them also. There is also a way to get rid of chipmunks where you kill them but I am all about that being a last resort so you will have to email me for that trick if its really necessary.

Answer 2

They are gathering the nuts they buried last year.

Enjoy them.

Answer 3

Throw some moth balls in the holes and that should deter them. Squirrels dig holes to bury their food for winter storage, and chipmunks just burrow.
