For about 16-dollars you can buy a small have-a-heart trap, which will last for years & years, that's good for chipmunks, red & grey squirrels, and even a mink, once.

Whether you want to relocate a trapped chipmunk off to Camp Chippasauki, so's it can go play with the other 'chipmunks,' or just drown it, while it's trapped in the have-a-heart cage, and leave the deceased chippy out on the road for the local crows, is up to you.

Both chipmunks and humans are mammals, and probably have somewhat similar lungs for breathing, so watching a chipmunk become deceased while drowning is very self-instructive to the danger that people face while sailing or fishing. Watching a chipmunk drown; it looks like the small mammal painfully suffers past the point of no return in about 20-seconds, so's at least it is quick.
