Voles are small, chunky rodents that look like a cross between a mouse and a hamster. Outside, they create shallow tunnels and runways in lawns and around shrubs. In winter and early spring, you may suddenly notice winding trails in the grass where snow once sat.

Even though they usually stay outdoors, voles can cause real damage to landscaping, garden beds, and young trees. Ignoring them allows tunnels and populations to expand season after season. We use exterior treatments and habitat adjustments to bring vole activity down and help your yard recover.
