[QUOTE="JayKay, post: 176429, member: 324"] This spring, as the snow melted, I was astonished. The voles had been very busy in my yard. I'm hearing that the ground never froze, or didn't freeze hard enough, or various other things. First time that I've ever had this level of mess. Last fall I trapped a couple of them while it was still nice out. I was surprised that they were that easy to get. I actually just laid a chunk of 2X4 (maybe 6 ft) across an area where they were making trails. They ran to the piece of lumber, then along it, and right into my little clutches. Anyhow, I got two last fall, and was pretty much spraining my elbow - patting myself on the back. Fast-forward to spring, and I obviously just pissed them off. One of the "does" I caught was fat. I'd guess I eliminated more than one animal with that one. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] Also, for some dumb reason, they are attracted to peanut butter - FYI [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] I never checked. Only kept the backstraps - the rest went to the coyotes I guess. [/QUOTE]
