My neighbor's cat has worked wonders for us.
Went from 20+ dirt piles in the yard down to zero this year. I didn't actually do anything.

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

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.

I stuck the garden hose way down about 6’ down and drowned the little varmints

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