VOLES
Other Names: Meadow Vole, Field Mice
Voles are the most prolific breeders in the rodent family, producing 3-5 pups per litter and up to 17 litters in a year. A female vole can have 80 offspring in a year! However, nature has its system of checks and balances. Since the vole has a wide variety of predators, including large birds, most only survive a few months in the wild. | | Suggested Vole Baits Do you have a mouse trap and need to know what the best vole bait options are? Victor® recommends the following baits to attract Voles. 
◊ Sunflower seeds
◊ Oatmeal
◊ Peanut butter
◊ Apple slices
Tying the bait to the trigger will prevent the vole from licking or nibbling the bait and stealing without setting of the trap.
For baits that cannot be tied (e.g. peanut butter), it’s best to use small amounts.
