Voles, what're you gonna do.


     I've had snow covering my back yard all winter until this past week.  The voles had a hey-day during that time and left me a big mess.  I always have some damage, but this year it is particularly bad.

 "Voles can make a mess of the lawn. Similar to mice, voles are small rodents that have shorter tails and legs and a stocky body. Voles like to feast on lush grass under the snow and leave a mess of tunnels and dead grass behind. They typically chew through the grass stems."


     It is going to snow again tonight and will at least look pretty again.  Snow hides a lot.
