Default How to get rid of voles?

My friend has voles in his lawn and garden, and lately they have been

eating
the roots and killing some of his garden plants and shrubs--the latest
victims have been some spinach plants and a blueberry bush. Is there a
non-chemical way to get rid of them? They are digging into his garden and
shrub beds from the nearby lawn.

Thanks in advance,

Jean in VA


Buy a bunch of mouse traps, bait the traps with peanut better, and place
them in the area with the voles. I took care of a bunch of voles that were
chewing holes in my squash that way.
