WHAT ARE CHIPMUNKS?
Chipmunks are small rodents with reddish-brown fur with white and black stripes along their face, back, and tail. They are well known for their chubby cheeks, lighting fast movements, and burrowing habits. Their underground dens consist of multiple chambers and tunnels that can stretch out for 20-30 feet. Chipmunks love nuts, seeds, and berries and will tear up gardens looking for these foods. Chipmunks are about 6-10 inches long and typically weigh around 1-5 ounces.
Chipmunks are common throughout Wisconsin and the Milwaukee Area, especially in woody areas and parks. Their dens have many chambers and tunnels that can stretch out for 20-30 feet. The entrances to their burrows are located near shrubs, brush, or rocky places to provide coverage.
Chipmunks breed in early spring (February to April) and again in summer (June to August). Chipmunks breed in early spring (February to April) and again in summer (June to August). The litter size ranges from 4 to 5 young that are born a few weeks after breeding. Baby chipmunks will stay in their burrow for about 5-6 weeks before going off independently.
HAVE A PROBLEM WITH CHIPMUNKS?
Don’t be fooled by their cute appearance. Chipmunks cause countless problems for homeowners throughout Wisconsin. They will chew wires and create underground burrows that can compromise the structural integrity of sidewalks, driveways, and garage floors, which can cost homeowners thousands of dollars in repairs. Chipmunks will also tear up flower beds and gardens looking for food or places to store their nuts.
