As far as getting rid of them - cats who are good hunters is a start.  We 
also use PVC 4" pipe tubes in which we place rat and mice poison (in the 
center 
where the birds can't get at it.)   We have neighborhood cats who hunt here 
and 
have never been harmed by it.  These are especially useful during the winter 
when there is snow cover and the voles can carry on unseen.  

We never completely eliminate them and there is always a bit of damage but it 
is much more controlled than in the beginning.  Jan Sacks

Mr. Hazzard used tiles and put arsenic in them. Naturally that was before PVC 
pipe and when arsenic was available. anna mae miller
