Chipmunks have chubby cheeks and fuzzy tail which make them adorable although they can deliver significant damages to your home, yard and surrounding areas. They burrow your yard up to 30 feet long. Chipmunk mostly becomes active in the early morning and late afternoon. They give birth from April to May or August to October months.
