Abstract/Contents:Compares moles and voles, stating that "moles are meat eaters, and only a few of them share a feeding area...Voles, on the other hand, are vegetarians, and there can be hundreds raiding [a] garden." States that "moles and voles are hard to control because they live underground." Provides potential control methods, suggesting that "installing barriers and setting traps will generally be the two most effective means of control."
