Did I hear you right? You said use mixed birdseed, so they'll eat bird seed? I have two bird feeders in my yard where I've seen activity, Please inform me if thats the problem or is it because of my neighbors apple tree being just 3 feet from my property, on other side of the privacy fence, I noticed they do come from her yard, tunneling under the fence.

Hi Mary, the system kills the vole colony in your yard. The apple sign test helps determine the active area to place bait stations. You can learn more about the system and how it works at volecontrol.com
Always good to encourage natural predators to help keep the vole numbers down. An infestation may require more action to gain control. The Kaput Vole Bait we sell with our bait stations is the least toxic poison on the market and does not pose a threat to birds of prey. Check out our website at volecontrol.com for more information.
The Idaho Extension has a plan to build two Barn Owl nest boxes from one sheet of exterior plywood. Place it 8 feet high and orient the entrance away from the prevailing Winter wind. Make the entrance oval no more than 4 x 5 inches. Yes, the bait is effective when you have an infestation requiring immediate attention. However if an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, then a nesting pair eating more than 3,000 voles in a five month nesting period should be considered by rural landholders everywhere. Ticks need hosts. Small warm blooded mammals not only host ticks they are disease reservoir. Barn Owls will suppress the tick host population. California vineyards place them at one per 26 acres and Florida sugar cane fields one per 57 acres. This reduces the food for coyote and pit vipers too.
