Vole Control in Phoenix Metropolitan Area, Arizona

Vole Control Services

Voles are known for the shallow tunnels they can dig within your lawn, ripping up your grass and damaging plants and trees in the process. Voles are small, brownish-gray rodents that look very similar to mice. Voles are around 5 to 7 inches long, with stocky builds, short legs, and a short tail. Many people confuse them with moles, but these two species are very different. At ecoPest Wildlife Management we offer professional vole removal services in the Phoenix Metropolitan Area!

Determining what kind of rodent pest you are dealing with is very important for proper management. Our experts have the experience to accurately identify a vole infestation and effectively resolve it quickly.

Vole Burrow Damage

Unlike moles and other burrowing critters, voles do not actually dig subterranean tunnels to live inside. Instead, voles will dig shallow trenches about two inches wide throughout the yard. Voles are social animals that live in groups and can quickly make a mess of your lawn. They’ll leave shallow mounds of dirt all over.

Vole trenches aren’t the only damage they can do. Some of the other signs of vole damage to look for are:

  • Brown, dead, or wilting grass 
  • Gnaw marks around the base of trees or shrubs 
  • Missing vegetables from your garden, or gnaw marks on your vegetable crops

Vole nests are shaped like globes of dry grass and might be found underneath old boards, discarded metal, logs, or any other type of cover within your yard.

If voles are damaging your property, call us today or submit a contact form for a free vole control estimate in the Phoenix Metropolitan Area!

Are Voles Dangerous?

While Voles are not aggressive they pose health risks to pets and people. Voles can spread several different diseases, including:

  • Plague 
  • Tularemia 
  • Hantavirus 
  • Listeria

Voles should always be handled by professionals, as voles are unpredictable wild animals that can scratch or bite when improperly handled.

How To Get Rid of Voles In Your Lawn

Using over-the-counter pesticides on voles is not recommended, as in many cases, these toxins can cause worse damage to your lawn than the voles themselves. If you have voles damaging your lawn in the the Phoenix Metropolitan Area, the best way to get rid of them is trapping. At ecoPest Wildlife Management we specialize in efficient vole control, vole trapping, and vole removal to rid your yard of these destructive pests once and for all.

Vole Prevention

Preventing Voles from returning to your yard involves a combination of habitat modification, exclusion techniques, and deterrents. Habitat modification is one of the most effective forms of vole prevention.

How to prevent voles:

  1. Remove their food sources such as grubs, insects, and fallen fruit.
  2. Modify their habitat by keeping grass short, removing dense vegetation, and avoiding thick layers of mulch.
  3. Bury wire mesh or hardware cloth around gardens, trees, and shrubs to prevent voles from burrowing. The mesh should be buried at least 6 inches deep and extend above ground. To protect trees wrap the base of trees with a wire mesh to prevent voles from gnawing on the bark.
     

ecoPest Wildlife Management can also provide you with preventative vole solutions. We can install wildlife barriers around the perimeter of your yard to prevent voles from entering, and we also install wildlife fencing around the base of trees, which will prevent them from stripping the bark.
