Chipmunks -- I guess I got lucky. Mine weren't bothering my peppers, but they were driving my indoor cat crazy. She was howling and marking her territory to protect me from the little beasties, I guess. Anyway, I went to Home Depot, bought one of those Hav-a-hart (no kill) traps. Caught 'em and relocated 'em (one at a time) to the woods a few miles away. They haven't come back. Cat AND peppers are both doing fine. Good luck with YOUR chipmunk relo program! Dot in DEE-troit
