I don't neccesarily want to poison them but they freak me out. I live in Oh and don't think I can even trap and remove them. Should I call pest removers? Help!!

Take a five gallon pail and fill it half full with water. Cover the pail with saran wrap (not the new stuff that really seals tight) put a piece of wood like a 1 x 2 so they can walk up to get to the top. Sprinkle a little bird seed up the walk and then put some on top of the saran wrap. When they walk on the saran wrap they will fall in and drown. Problem solved!

We have used rat traps in the past - HOWEVER - sometimes it does not kill them instantly - and the chipmunks will run around with the trap on their body for 1/2 hr or so., also regular squirrels get caught in them! Have you even seen a full size squirrel run around with a rat trap on their head - not a pretty sight. Cats will take care of them - real quick

they are attracked to food in area or they are nesting there . clean up one of these and they will leave if they are in you r basement ,, that must mean they have found a crack in foundation ,it get down there . moth balls are good , wind flowers that make movement can maybe help ,,,, good luck
