Vole Control in Northern California

Professional Vole Control for Active Lawn and Plant Damage

Gopher Team provides professional vole control throughout Northern California using targeted treatment methods designed to quickly reduce vole activity and protect lawns, plants, and landscapes. Our technicians identify active vole areas and tailor treatment based on your property and local conditions.

Voles are small, fast-breeding rodents that feed on grasses, plants, and roots, often causing sudden and widespread damage. Because vole populations can grow quickly, early identification and prompt treatment are key to preventing ongoing landscape loss.

How to tell if you have voles

Signs You May Have a Vole Problem

Small, open holes about the size of a golf ball and narrow surface runways through grass are common signs of vole activity.

Voles

In Northern California, vole activity can escalate quickly due to mild weather conditions and abundant food sources, making early treatment especially important. They will go after your lawns, vegetables, and plants – including trees.

The good news is that most properties see results with only one or two treatments!

Vole Control FAQs

Do you offer vole control in my area?

Gopher Team provides vole control services throughout much of Northern California. Availability may vary by county due to local regulations, so we encourage homeowners to contact us to confirm service options in their area.

Do voles cause more damage than gophers or moles?

Voles can cause significant damage in a short period of time due to their rapid reproduction and feeding habits. They often damage lawns, plants, and roots rather than creating large dirt mounds.

Why is vole control different from gopher or mole control?

Because voles reproduce quickly and move through surface runways, trapping is often ineffective. Targeted treatment methods are typically more effective at reducing active vole populations.

How long does vole control take?

Most properties see a noticeable reduction in vole activity shortly after treatment. Due to reproduction cycles, ongoing monitoring may be recommended depending on conditions.

What Homeowners Are Saying About Our Vole Control Services

“Excellent service and “RESULTS” on both a large gopher and vole infestation. The field technicians were diligent and knowledgeable. Due to the results I have enrolled on the monthly maintenance plan.”

Shawn M.

“We had about 50 vole holes and they came out within two days and put bait in each hole. Before the two week guarantee period had expired, we found two new holes (which is MUCH less than before) and they came right out and handled those as well. Things are considerably better now thanks to Gingrich!”

John M.

“My go-to whenever I see evidence of gophers, moles, or voles. They are very responsive when I reach out and always catch the critters quickly. I also appreciate the thoroughness of the info they provide at each step. Great team and service!”

Effective Vole Control Methods

Our Solutions for California Homeowners

It is best to get the problem under control as quickly as possible. Because of their size and their high rate of reproduction, trapping is not a very effective method of control. Our vole control service entails us performing a one-time bait application within the vole holes. The bait we use is deactivated by water so we ask that you not water the treated area for 2 to 3 days to ensure that the voles have consumed as much bait as possible. After watering we recommend filling in the holes with some dirt. This allows you to identify any new activity and make use of our guarantee.

This treatment is only guaranteed for 2 weeks due to their prolific reproduction rate.
