Vole Extermination In Memphis TN
Vole Control In Memphis TN - Vole Damage
Just like moles, voles can be the most aggravating little varmints any homeowner can face. Voles are also known as field mice, but these little herbivores only eat plants and bark from trees and bushes.
Although you will rarely see an actual vole, their damage is easily recognizable. Vole holes are roughly 2 inches around and found in groupings of several holes close together. They will also tunnel through your yard in search of roots and plants. As these animals eat the roots of your grass, your grass will die and leave an ugly path approximately two inches wide across your lawn. You will also notice bark missing from the bottom of trees and bushes.
Vole Extermination In Memphis TN - Do I Have Voles Or Moles?
This is a common question we get from homeowners on a regular basis. Once you see the difference in vole damage vs mole damage, it is easy to tell what you may have.
Voles will create small holes around 2 inches in diameter while digging nesting sites. Their tunnels are around 2 inches wide, flat and usually sunken.
Moles will create hills from the dirt they excavate while digging nesting sites. Their feeder tunnels are raised ridges and much larger than vole tunnels. Voles will often use old abandoned mole tunnels as well.
Vole Control In Memphis TN - Vole Reproduction
Voles reproduce throughout the entire year, with peak rates in the spring and summer. If you feel like your vole problem just won’t go away, you’re right! A female vole will reach sexual maturity in about 13 days — that’s less than two weeks! Add to that the fact that voles’ gestation period is 16-24 days, and a female vole can have her first litter as early as the end of her first month of life.
A typical vole litter has 5 to 8 baby voles, but it could have more. When you consider that any female baby vole in that first litter will also have her first litter in one more month, it becomes clear how fast these rodents can populate an area.
