Rob--

I do the live trapping of chipmunks that like to burrow around our house.

State division of wildlife said poison them or use spring traps large enough for rats. Or catch and transport to public land.

So I live trap using peanut butter bait and take them a couple of miles to a riverside.

Two years ago got rid of 22 that way.

Would have far fewer if we were not feeding birds. But typically see about 28 species of birds every year.

As for mice, used electronic traps to eliminate a group of eight this past fall. Peanut butter again.
