VOLE CONTROLTIPS TO KEEP THESE PEST OUT OF YOUR ORCHARD

摘要

VOLE DAMAGE TO fruit and nut trees can be devastating, unless preventative measures are taken to reduce their numbers, which are usually high during spring to early autumn when there is plenty of grain and vegetation for them to feed on. However, treedamage usually occurs during late fall and winter, particularly if the ground is covered with snow. During this period, there is little vegetation for them to feed on. As a result, they are feeding on less desirable woody plants, such as apples, nuts, and occasionally peaches.
