Vole's have a vegetarian diet which consists of plant crown, seeds, tubers, tree needles, bark, various green vegetation such as grass and clover, andinsects. Voles prefer not to feed in the open.
Voles require dense grass cover and prefer to live outside in fields. They love fresh mulch beds around home owners homes or new landscape where soil and mulch is loose, woodland beds, and tilled garden soil. The easier it is to dig the better for Voles.
Voles are very destructive to gardens and will gnaw the bark of fruit trees. They can also cause damage to tree roots, which may eventually kill the trees. Voles will wipe out landscapes, gardens, crops, without you knowing you have a problem until it’s to late. Voles do not make mounds they use mole tunnels or dig in loose soft 3-12" of soil.
Install an underground barrier to exclude moles from your yard or garden.

Healthy plants are slowly eaten from below and when the crown/root system is destroyed, the plant will fall over and expose the damage.
