Help:- I have an invasion of Voles!!!!!
In about July this year we noticed tunnels appearing in our front lawn and then tunnels in every part of beds. I put out a live trap and caught 5 voles but the damage hasn't lessened. I then called out a pest control company and they said voles were the one thing they couldn't do anything about. I tried rags soakd in Jeyes fluid put down the tunnels and it made no difference. I went around nearly every day collapsing as many tunnels as I could, still made no difference. I hated it but even bought some poison bate blocks and put them in the tunnels. Still no difference. Poor hubby is even peeing (sorry) on the tunnels and so far that has stopped them continuing with those tunnels but just starting fresh ones. I now have about 20 odd tunnels going into my lawn and every plant has tunnels going under and around them that I am worried about them dying off. Has anyone got any ideas that we haven't tried? I already have a cat but she is getting on in years that she just isn't interested in hunting anymore. Below are just 3 of the tunnels, 1st one just from last night.
