How To Trap Voles

In my post on how to remove voles from your garden, a reader Tomma mentioned she had caught 50 voles through trapping. I was impressed, since I have had zero luck trapping voles. Tomma recommended the following video about how to set traps and the method makes sense to me. Check it out:

Warning: there is a dead vole in the video. It is sad to kill animals, so I recommend only doing it if you have a serious infestation.

Thank you! We don’t have a garden to defend this year, alas, but I’ll have to keep this in mind for next year.

We have a vole/mole/shrew superhighway in our middle pasture. :\
