I use stalite (permatill, volebloc) mixed into the soil when I plant new bulbs, unless they are toxic plants like daffodils. Stalite looks like pumice and supposedly voles don't like to dig through it. It does seem to work.

So I’m curious to know how others deal with these voracious herbivores. Do those non-poisonous pellets work?
