Shrew
Shrew–Identify damage
Shrews are primarily outdoor pests of ornamental and turf areas. Only occasionally do they enter homes and buildings - usually in basements and ground floor areas.
Thus, shrew control should be directed toward the exterior of the home.
Burrows
Shrews will run along tunnels or runways created by Moles & Voles.
This constant travel will create defined surface runways & tunnels through turf areas measuring about 1.5 to 2 inches.
Plants and Trees
During the winter, when animal material is scarce, shrews dig into trunks and roots, killing or damaging the trees or shrubs.
