What on earth did people do about voles historically when they
required much larger gardens for self sustenance? What do you all do
to protect your investments in plants and time from these pests?


Hi Sue,

Here in Central Indiana voles do exist, but aren't a problem to worry about. We do have a high Red Tailed Hawk population and suspect they help hold the vole population down. I see the hawks set on fence posts, etc. very often and often see them swoop down apprearenly catching something. Mice, voles & snakes?
