I have already noticed there is simply not the number of chipmunks in the stone walls around my house this Spring. Last year there were at least 15 running around. This year only one or two. However they managed to put quite a few into the hood of my wife's car. Now I just have to figure out how to get them all out.
As far as the Hostas I was just thinking of making a basket out of some wire mesh screen that I have. Left over from screening off the Attic vents to keep the bats out of the attic. But the gravel sounds like a good idea too as long as the plants can root properly. I checked and most of the other hostas I have are still there and starting to pop out.
