June 10, 2019Q.animal pest
I have Voles getting into my hanging plants, eating on the roots of the plants thus killing them. I live in Western Kentucky, USA. as i understand it, unlike moles, who eat insects, they go for vegetation. I have no pictures, have already thrown plants away. I know they are the Voles because of the size of their entry hole one the side of the plant. Thank you

Certified ExpertA.An alternative to fencing each individual plant will be to fence the entire garden plot as one. This is the best way to keep rabbits out.
There are other ways to get rid of them, though. This article will help: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/plant-problems/pests/animals/keep-rabbits-out-of-gardens.htm

Certified ExpertA.It is always best to start a new question, as we may miss something that is not an Unanswered Question.
It is advised not to disturb turtle beds, as many are endangered species, and doing so could be considered illegal in many places.

July 5, 2019Q.Does. Using milky spore on the lawn aid in controlling moles?
I have had moles for a few years now. I also have a dog that has been digging up the moles. Currently I’m not seeing any moles, but I have lots of brown grass.I have applied milky spore this year in May. I have read it needs to be applied 3 times per year for 2 years. I also understand summer and fall are good times to apply milky spore. If my information is inaccurate please inform me as to the correct methods.
