How do I keep chipmunks out of garden? They climb the fence!

I don't, they have free reign of the yard. Why do you want to keep them out? If not your pets, chat with the owners. Not the animals fault, it's the humans lack of training.
I use moth balls.
I put up a fence around my garden.
Hi Tammy. Purchase a motion detection sprinkler (sold at Amazon). Make sure the water only sprinkles on your lawn, no sidewalks or streets. The water will not harm the pet, but will be a shock. A couple of times and the animal won't go near! Just be sure and turn it off when you want to venture into that area. Good luck!
Thank you. I will try that.

Absolutely under no circumstances use moth balls. They are poisonous. Training is your best bet. I long got over worrying about pet damage in my yard, my dog is more important.
You need to get a motion sensor sprayer, it activates and sprays when something approaches.
