I wake up probably twice a month to a dead vole on my floor thanks to my cat

Geez. Your cat could upset the environmental balance!

Well, I have a good mouser cat so I don’t get voles anymore, but before I had good luck with vole traps that I bought on

So they burrow under the bucket to get to the trap?

I think you put the bucket and trap over the hole.

Find the holes. Put the trap at the entrance and cover with a bucket.

If you want to have lots of fun, stick a hose down one of the holes and grab a shotgun

We had success with these by placing them in their tracks.

No kill? I'd want those sucker dead. D-E-A-D.

Oh, they ended up dead. Just the trap didn’t kill them.

Honestly? Cats. Everything else is temporary. Those cats clear them out really quick.

That's what I did. Stuck a hose down the hole and pumped a couple hundred gallons of water down there.
