Although they are both rodents, many people mistake voles for mice. This is due to their close resemblance. One way to tell the difference is by their behavior and diet. Voles tend to make their homes underground, so humans don't see them. Voles are known for eating bulbs and root vegetables like carrots and potatoes, which can cause big problems for farmers. Like most wild animals, voles can be carriers of multiple parasites and diseases like hantavirus and salmonella. We know you'd rather avoid contracting these deadly diseases, so give us a call to schedule a vole inspection today! Reach our Kansas City Metro office today of you think you may have a vole problem.
