There are approximately 155 species of voles. They are sometimes known as meadow mice or field mice in North America. Vole species form the subfamily Arvicolinae with the lemmings and the muskrats. **************************************************** One or more of them chewed at the base of my Japanese irises and broke off one blade on many plants but in just one area. They really dislike hot peppers so I sprinkle them around plants I'm concerned about. So far...they've never hurt any of my lilies and the cats (not mine) seem to find the voles fairly fast and leave them for me to dispose of as I find them. |
