Is it good for squirrels and chipmunks?

The rifle is definitely powerful enough to ethically kill squirrels and chipmunks, but you will definitely struggle with the accuracy, and you will need to practice the 'artillery hold', but this is the same for any break barrel spring or nitro piston powerplant rifle. A good scope with AO (adjustable objective) will help tremendously. The package scope is junk. I actually paid more for my scope than I did the rifle. A decent budget scope is the Hammers 3-9x32. A good clean/deburr and tune will also help with the accuracy and consistency. These rifles sometimes need hundreds of shots, if not a thousand to break in - but that can also be when the internals begin to wear out. I've tuned my rifle with a vortek pg2 kit, and am now re-breaking it in. The original piston seal failed after about 1.5k shots.

Yes it is but be careful. I would advise some practice shots first to set your "sights" and get a better feel for the rifle before pointing at a live target..extremely powerful

I have chipmunks but never had them climb up to the feeder before. Squirrels were my problem and this product works well blocking them and I am sure it would work on chipmunks too. What is funny is looking out and seeing a squirrels tail sticking out of the bottom of the tube when they try to figure out how to get up the pole with this guard on it!

Not sure, I might use a formal electric rat trap, the chipmunks might get stuck in this machine.

The does warn against putting it anywhere other animals can get to it. It is full of seeds, so I think squirrels would be attracted to it.

Hi, I am a bird & squirrel photographer & this feeder makes the cutest photos. . The squirrels will empty it pretty quickly but mine seem scared to go down the opening very far in case they get stuck. I take my feeder into the house if I am not watching it as even the chipmunks can empty it very fast.

They work well for chipmunks and squirrels and with modification work great to keep away deer and prowlers: https://youtu.be/MqUv3dzBdN8

I don't think these are nearly strong enough or large enough for chipmunks. We have lots of chipmunks around our house but they don't try to nest in our home. If they are trying to do that perhaps you need to deter by using mothballs along the interior of your basement or interior to wherever they are entering- it doesn't kill but works as a deterrent...and also keeps spiders out!

I have not had any chipmunks try to get the suet, but it could happen. This is a suet hanger. Any animal can get to the food just like any other hanger. The roof does tend to disguise it a bit.

Yes it does. I hope it works for you, I found that it did not work for me . I still have rodents running around my yard, squirrels, rabbits and chipmunks and some moles.

dont know about squirrels, i got it for my parents home and they just love it, it got rid of the field mice and they have since gotten another one, but one of the device did the trick, they wanted one for their laundry room

The smallest size works well for red squirrels and chipmunks but may not be adequate for a large grey squirrel

Well, it does take a bit or weight/force to tip the tray in the middle which initiates the trap close function. I would have to say that it would not work with chipmunks, IMO. Its better suited for something larger. Hope this helps. BM

Well, if chipmunks can climb up a tree or a pole and reach the feeder I would think perhaps their weight might shut the feeder ports..but I don't know..we don't have chipmunks here. You'll just have to chance it, I guess.

The ports on this feeder are designed to close under a squirrel's weight, preventing them from raiding seed supply. We apologize, however the feeder has not been tested for its effectiveness against chipmunks.

I can only guess that it probably will. My two cats have eliminated every chipmunk within about six blocks of my house. But since the product works based on the on heat on the seeds, I would guess it would bother a chipmunk as much as it bothers a squirrel.

I do not know but I would not want to harm a squirrel. A live-catch trap and relocation would be a better solution. There are probably squirrel repellents that could also be used. Good luck.

I'm sure it will, I put it in my bird seed that was up on a pole, but, it definitely kept the squirrels away. Add more to spice up the seed, I'm sure the chipmunks won't like that.
