With about 155 vole species worldwide, these small rodents also go by the name of meadow mice and field mice. Voles can be identified by their short, hairy tail, round head, small ears, tiny eyes, and stout body.

How to Get Rid of Voles:

For yards, gardens, and areas up to 3,000-4,000 square feet: The Yard Gard and Solar Yard Gard are electronic ultrasonic repellents that use sounds out of the range of human hearing to irritate pest animals, repelling them from your property. Because the sound waves are nearly silent to the human ear, these products can be used within residential areas. With specific pest animal settings, and continuous or motion sensor operation modes, these devices are effective, low-maintenance products.

For outdoor areas up to 50 feet in radius: The Transonic Mole is effective against burrowing animals that dig up lawns and gardens. With a multi-sensory attack, the device combines flashing lights, vibrations, and penetrating sonic tones to effectively force away property pests.

For large, remote outdoor areas up to 6 acres: The Critter Blaster PRO is a sonic pest system that works to aggressively harass a number of pest birds and animals away from large outdoor areas. Its four-speaker system and 8 available harassment sounds allow for a fully programmable device. The Critter Blaster Pro is ideal for airfields, farms, landfills, vineyards, orchards, and more.

Humane vole control methods are equally effective against all types of voles including species around the world.
