Chipmunks live underground. You'd have to have a pretty poor environment for a chipmunk to live inside a structure. Red squirrels, on the other hand, love to gnaw through buildings to gain entrance and build a Winter nest. The easiest way to get rid of rodents is to remove the food source, they will move on if there isn't any of their favorite foods available. Cats are an excellent control for rodents. My new cat is on the hunt every day and is decimating the mice population.
They do not live there but hide their loot. I had trouble with them once. They got in somewhere by the propane tanks and went straight up and stored their acorns between the ceiling and roof. So removing the food source will do no good. They are using it as their pantry.
FYI, my dog ended up capturing all of them. I think she is part cat. She is constantly getting chimpmunks, birds and other rodents.
