Having just come in from the gardens where moles have excavated around  
perennials and through dormant bulb beds, I saw "gophers" and just have to ask  
about moles and voles which I know are different but similarly destructive. 
I  have tried Plantskydd granules, traps, and removing leaf cover but to no 
avail.  We do not have more than a few grubs ( I have applied nematodes) 
but we do have  many earthworms. I know moles are insectivores, and voles eat 
vegetation, roots,  bulbs, etc. Would anyone have some suggestions?
