I read somewhere that human pee works just as good, so I kindly asked any male that came over to visit to use the bathroom outside. I also buried lots of peeled garlic around the garden. I don't know what did the trick, but they eventually went away!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10838598323774367975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20750927.post-39485195665229290582011-01-13T05:21:22.132-05:002011-01-13T05:21:22.132-05:00Sorry about the voles but this did make me smile.....Sorry about the voles but this did make me smile...

I had actually hoped to make it there this past week, but it didn't happen. How does next week look for you? <br /><br />Stacy, I don't miss the snakes or the fire ants...glad we aren't dealing with those here!<br /><br />Kelleyn, oh no...your whole yard? <br /><br />se7en, baboons and porcupines!!! yikes!

We get porcupines that decimate your garden in stealthy silence - you wouldn't even know they were there... but you blink and your entire garden looks like some sort of construction site - well short of the scaffolding!!!<br />And baboons come in troops and eat the entire vegetable garden roots and all in the space of about two seconds... nothing quite or stealthy about them!!!se7enhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15432167351999892522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20750927.post-41925996228778013792011-01-12T11:06:38.897-05:002011-01-12T11:06:38.897-05:00I am not really sure what a vole is, I guess I nee...I am not really sure what a vole is, I guess I need to look it up, but we had moles in Michigan. We ended up placing traps for them because they were destroying our lawn. It worked though a little emotional.

No suggestions here but I'll be very interested to see where this goes...<br /><br />I never saw one icky, frightening, pesky thing in Ireland and I often think about and laugh now that I'm back in Florida with snakes, spiders and fire ants.

I'm sure our cat Bianca would do wonders for your problem -- she is a feline hunting machine (mostly specializing in lizards and small birds, but i'm sure given the chance she'd also venture into the world of voles!!!)<br />PS have you been to see the Modigliani exhibit yet at Castello Ursino? If not we should go check it out!karenhttp://www.lostinsicilia.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
