What Are Voles?

vole-affordable-pest-solutions

Voles are small brown rodents that are often mistaken for small field mice and are found throughout the United States including New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania. Voles are related to lemmings and hamsters but with a stouter body, a long hairy tale with small beady eyes. They only grow to about 3″ to 9″ depending on the species.

 

They live underground and typically travel through tunnels that they create across your front lawn or backyard. They can easily damage your home or business’s landscaping efforts, plants, trees grass that they can destroy very quickly without making any noise.

 

They are known for destroying your lawn by creating small holes in your yard. Sometimes they resemble an above-ground tunnel that spans across the yard in straight lines. If you notice that your plants have wilted or can be easily removed from the ground, then this is confirmation of a plant’s destroyed root system which can be blamed on an intrusive and pesky Vole.

Are Voles dangerous?

Voles are not a danger to humans directly, however, they can be detrimental to house plants, trees and crops. They cause extensive damage to lawns, costing homes and businesses lots of money in repairs and lawn care/cleanup.

 

Voles can bite, but they are very timid creatures that will scurry away if they sense a human is nearby. They can be a danger to humans and pets through their urine and feces which can harbor and spread very serious diseases. They are known to bring parasites onto your commercial or residential property. These parasites can be a problem for pets since they will make them sick if they come into contact with their droppings.

How do I prevent Voles?

Preventing a Vole infestation is best handled by professionals. These pests will return annually and your residential or commercial property will require ongoing vole maintenance to keep their numbers under control

How will Voles effect my home or business?

Voles cause extensive damage to commercial or residential lawn properties since they create underground tunnels so they can move from one place to another. The tunnels are about 2 inches wide and can be seen above ground which can make your property look unsightly. Voles like to eat grass, herbaceous plants, flowers, and shrubs and burrow underground taking shelter under the root systems of trees eventually killing them.

 

 

Without any proper vole treatment, your New Jersey residential or commercial property may endure many unsightly effects from these intrusive pests. The most popular effect is the damage they can cause plant-life in your home or business by extracting fluids from plants leaving them without the ability to continue to grow.

 

 

Having Voles in your business is not only unsanitary but very unpleasant to your customers due to the pungent odor they emit. Voles are not poisonous, however, their presence can have a negative effect on your business since they destroy lawns and make them unsightly..
