Has anyone else had this problem? I think it might be a chipmunk as I seen him run down the tree where they are being chewed. I had this happen last year too with a different setup and straps. What can I do to discourage this?
TIA,
Liz

Try Capsaicin, white vinegar, peppermint oil, coffee grounds, cinnamon, predator urine, garlic, dryer sheets, Irish Spring Soap, or Rosemary

Take your gear down. Leaving it up full time will cause damage.
Ambulo tua ambulo.
Maybe specify the actual cordage/webbing you are using, a pic of the damage wouldn't hurt and also the duty cycle being used. Otherwise you get guesses because folks don't actually know what you are dealing with.

What might you do if a squatter set up camp at your home, maybe bring a cat.
Paracord for the tarp line and the tree straps are what came with the hammocks when I purchased them. Last years was the 180 hammock from ridge outdoors and this year is a double hammock from one wind. I don’t have a closeup pic of the damage. IMG_6849.jpg

Bug spray, insect repellent might leave a bad taste in mouths of critters.
Some insect repellents damage hammocks. Test on small area first.
This might work for a weekend, but not over a long time.
Refresh repeat.
I just made that up, off top of my head
Further study may be required
