I totally agree with you I'm 67 years old and found RUclips 3 years ago and it has enriched my life I have learned so much from the good people who post videos and thank you for posting yours
Tommy, I am so sorry to answer your comment this late but this video has over 300,00 views and a lot of comments. Thank you for taking the time to comment. Again, I ask for your forgiveness. Rick
Absolutely! YT has helped me many times for home projects, stuff that breaks etc etc.
It's Got it's good and it's bad, but it's all in what you're watching I guess.
Totally agree. I love YT and I know I have saved thousands upon thousands of dollars since I began watching DIY videos. I am always thankful to those willing to share DIY videos. Y'all are the best!
I make it a point to learn something new from RUclips every day. It's incredible.
Man, I think you’re awesome! I loved the trap you shared and just hearing you talk to us. You seem like a great contribution to you the human race sir!! You take care of yourself!!! Thank you very much!!
You are encouraging and pleasant to listen to and watch. Approximately a minute and a half in and I pressed “Subscribe.” The term “bush hog” is a new one for me. 😀
Thank you for the info. Cut the grass shorter on the first cut and I seen their tunnels and a lot of them. So now I have another project.
I have saved so much and learned even more . My sister in law throws away a 60inches flat screen I got it soldered key points on the coolers and boards all off utube and it haven't missed a beat since.
I agree I've learned a lot on RUclips my self. I'm 70 and no matter your Age you can always learn. Vole bait station is a great idea . I'm making one myself after your video. Thanks for the lesson
You know you are amazing guy, out of all the help videos you are the only one that encourage others to youtube
You are an amazing man! My husband and I couldn’t for the life of us figure out what was doing the tunnels in our yard and knew it wasn’t moles or gophers. I’ve never heard about voles until this. We will be trying it and seeing if it works. Thank you so so much. It was truly nerve racking.
Thank you. I like watching these types of videos the most. Yes, I’ve learned a lot from them also.
Very informative!
I’ve been forced to use poison for years and the drowning bucket too.
Fall is coming and it’s on!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart. This video was so helpful. I’ll be making some “feeding stations” soon!
I just want to say that, thanks to you, I got rid of a nest of voles that tore my beautiful lawn apart in less than a month. Don't believe some of the YT vids that sale voles only eat roots. I got the fish flavored bait. It did take about a week to ten days before they chomped on it. I almost gave up as none of the other "cures" were working either. Then, BOOM! I first noticed the grass was growing back. Went and looked at the traps and, surprise, had to refill them.
We need more you tubers like you!
This is a great idea! This is the first bait station I’ve seen like this. I’m definitely going to be building a few.
I'm currently attending you tube university. Taking classes on sketching and just about anything DIY. Thanks for the Info!
Thanks for taking the time to share what you know. Much appreciated.
My pleasure!
I can't wait to get started using this method. I've been trying to rid our farm of voles for years using just about every method you can think of. This one look's promising.
Thank god for RUclips. I have been in an epic battle against voles. I am going to drive 25 miles to town today to get supplies. I watched most of my winter garden just disappear one cabbage at a time down their holes. Pest control is so expensive but necessary.
OMG this is one of the best things I've seen in long time . Got voles tearing my yard up. Going to the hardware store tomorrow. Thanks 👍!!!!
This is the poison you need. Ramik NEOGEN 116331
@@ArkansasPrepper Will it work moles too?
That is quite the contraption there. It looks pretty easy to build and maintain. Thank you my friend.
Thanks!
THANK YOU!!! We don't live in the country but we do have a vole issue!! There are woods across the street from us and lots of perenials that are getting killed and damaged. We have lilac bush, mums, hostas, and peonies that have all been killed or extreme stunting of growth. They even run across our patio if we happen to be sitting there and not talking. I will be building these this weekend and I am gonna save our landscape!! Thank you!!!
This works! Had to overcome some pesky raccoons by lengthening the 2" horizontal tubes and then hose-clamping the trap to some rerod stakes hammered into the ground, but within a week all the voles are gone. I used the apple flavored bait - and they couldn't eat it fast enough. Have not seen any mice or chipmunks around either. I filled all the old vole holes and none have been re-opened. Not only will this save my vegetable garden this summer, but my lawn and bushes once there's snow on the ground.
Glad to hear it gets rid of chipmunks, too. Think I'll give it a try!
I can't find Ramik apple brand what didi you use all I see is the fish flavored
@@johnw685 I use JT Eaton Apple bait blocks. Locally it is at Menard's and Home Depot, or easily obtained on line. Still no voles or chipmunks:)
Yes. I also made these pvc traps years ago and they do work. When the neighbor across the road cut his fields the field mice would cross the road to my property I didn't know someone else knew about these bait feeders. Thanks for sharing.
That is awesome!
Great video Arkansas prepper, so the voles reproduce every 21 days! Wow! We have them here too but not for long! Thanks for sharing your video !
I agree with you about the value of RUclips. I have learned very much from others like me who know a trick, a hack, a detail, or something handed down from their grandparents. I do not like everything about anything, I guess, so I will not complain about those things that do not affect the good I am getting. It does seem that ordinary people who make videos to share with others do as great a service as making college available to us all. Thank you for your contribution as well.
OMG thanks so much for sharing this. They are DESTROYING my yard and grass near my pond. I will be making some of these for sure! I realized the same thing as you about RUclips. Love the platform and just started making videos myself. Thanks again.
Thank you for watching!
Bought two of these on line with the green peanut butter bait.Refilled,refilled,refilled-no more voles or chipmunks.Plenty of grass,vegetables and flowers once again!!
That is a cool design. I really like it, good idea.
Arkansas has so many critters but we deal with them. Here is a tip I use to keep rabbits and deer plus other things out of my garden. IRISH SPRING SOAP. Get a bunch of bars. Grate them with cheese grater and sprinkle Irish Spring all around and in garden. Deer & rabbit hate the smell we all love so much. Loved you little contraption....awesome video
My hubby made four of these and I’ve gone through about 20 baits so far. The first ones got moldy before they were gone just because we had nothing but rain the first six weeks of spring. Now they’re eating them up. It’s awesome. This is the ONLY thing that has worked. None of those stupid traps work at all! My final straw was them killing my young Ginkgo tree that I had grown for 10 years. I had NO idea I had a problem until then. My hostas all disappeared this summer too. I’m done. I don’t care if I kill every mouse or vole in the area! 😡😡 thank you!!!
LOL! I feel the same way. They were out of control here too. Your very welcome.
mice'es , I hates mic'es.
@@robertl.fallin7062 😆
There was someone on RUclips saying, they are in the house but they don't want to kill them, I would kill them ten times over if I could,i hate them
@@ArkansasPrepper with so much alternate food sources how long did it take for them to choose these baits. Usually professionals say to remove all.other food sources when putting down bait so that it gives them a chance to get Hub
Ngry enough to choose the bait
Living in Arkansas my entire life, I love listening to us 'xplain thangs. lol! Nice video. Thanks for sharing.
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching.
This guy's 👍 awesome.
Love the accent, could listen to him all day, has great sense.
Thank you so much for sharing what you've learned with us. I have a field mice problem I'm dealing with. Didn't think I had a problem until the other night when I discovered they've gotten into my stash of rice. That made me very angry because food prices certainly aren't coming down any time soon and these things are as stealthy as they come. I never knew they could be so smart. I've got traps set all over the place and it's as if they just sit there and laugh at them whenever they come across one. I had one lick sticky peanut butter clean off of one of them WITHOUT tripping the trap at all. They seem to know to avoid the tried and true method that worked for generations until now. So, long story made short, I went on RUclips looking for answers and I came across your fine video sir! I like the trap. It's affordable, reloadable, and effective. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge and experience tackling these crafty critters. Have a wonderful and blessed day. 😉
I built a couple traps today. Thanks again, Alan.
I love your matter of fact approach of putting information. Keep doing what you do. I have just subscribed. RUclips has taught me how to do so much.
Much appreciated!
Reminds me of the Cotton Gin. Eli Whitney had a patent on it, but the design was so simple, anyone could make one of their own.
They did but he took credit
A simple double fence, one 4 feet high and a similar fence inside about three feet inside. Will stop most any deer. Instead of wire on the inside fence I use white cord or nylon twine, the deer see it and don't want to jump into it.
I remember reading that voles love water. I came across an old comment that the gardener put in a preformed pond and it was not quite full, and everyday he found many voles who got in and drowned. This is what I am going to try first. I see how well this would work, but I adjoin state gamelands.
Best advice for making RUclips videos. DIY videos are gold.
Glad you think so!
Thank you. This is awesome. Been struggling with voles and now I have a real plan!!
Glad it was helpful!
I've battled voles unsuccessfully for the the past few years. In fact, took me forever to even figure out what was tearing up my yard so bad. Anyway, I'm so excited about this bait feeder design you've shared. I might have a chance at finally beating them this year!
Please do the apple test first. If it is not gone in a hour, move the pipe to another location. Find them and then build the bait station. Thanks for commenting and I hope this helped you.
I'm curious if this bait ended up doing the job for you? It isn't working at all for me.
@@jobob247 I have been using the bait cubes too and they don't work for me either, my yard is absolutely destroyed, there is no place that is not hollow when I poke it, I don't know what is even holding the yard up at this point!
I was exactly the same, NEVER encounted voles in 60 years of gardening. Lilies at $6 each,100 tulips crocus eaten, roses at 50$ a pop destroyed, clematis. Apple trees attacked barely survived. Heartbreaking.
@@jobob247 it’s not working for me either.
This is amazing. I have a bad infestation in my front yard. I’m going to use this design!
Thanks Will!
I like the recommendation to share what you know. Thank you for making this video. You are awesome!
Thank you Matthew.
Oh yea! I am getting ready to put my veggies in the ground so this is GOLD!
That’s a great idea, I’m gonna build a couple for around the garage and the house.
This video was a god send. My backyard is rittled with mice and voles. I will make about 5 of these and hopefully this solves the problem
Thanks! And you're right about RUclips videos. So much free information! Also, it's actually the best source for free movies and vintage TV shows.
I have been watching WWII films for months. I just finished watching every video about tank battles. I had no idea that the tank is what replaced the horse in battle.
Thanks for sharing, I love the way you talk......Eddie in central NC
Thanks!
Good info on the bait stations Rick 👍 TFS
Thanks buddy, I hope all is well with you. I bet your dusting of the hammock for the woods.
Great video!!! I love your property... you can do a lot with a place that big.
Less than 30 seconds in and I already knew I was in the right place 👍🏽Liked...Followed...Subscribed 💯
Thank you Elliott for watching and commenting. Liking, following and subscribing makes me very happy. Thank you.
Thank you so much. Voles ruined about half our potatoes last year and as we prepare this year I needed a good solution. This is perfect. Just wish I saw this before I went to lowes today, lol.
Very good video, I love your bait station idea.
Thanks Kurt!
El lay lawd...he said Fit teen minutes!! I subbed. Thanks for this! Lots love from the Moonshine capital of the world!
I built one of these, same size and shape. Used "One Bite", as the bait and they ate it up too.... Did later find good results as well. 🤟👴
Looking through the comments, if you could EASILY do this, it would be great... Put all the pieces parts on a flat surface (table, workbench, etc.). Do a dry fit assembly (or even a real one if you want) to demonstrate the process. Some DIYers won't need it, but less experienced folks could definitely benefit from it!! This is a great video!! Thank you!!
I wish I had at the time and have consider shooting another video. Thanks!
@@ArkansasPrepper I can understand that!!
Thank you for the video! I have a big mouse problem in my garden.
I love you RUclips, addictive but definitely educational, saves money I agree
Exactly what i needed to see, thank you!
It works. Thanks for commenting!
Done the pipes and tee for years, never thought of the redi rod feeder system thanks. Now I've got roof rats, will set up several these with rods, East monitoring if they are visiting.
Good luck!
I take clumps out of my cat box. Put another application when they move away from were you started. I chased them to the neighbors yard.
Ive been making these for the last 2 years and they work very well for voles.
You used the Ramik?
Thank you so much for posting this video. I now live out in the country and it seems we have a problem with voles. I searched online for solutions and tried a few things, then came to RUclips. This is genius! New subscriber, and very grateful for your video.
good point about RUclips, and excellent video about voles
THANK YOU !!! My husband made a bunch of these after watching your video. We had an infestation of these little monsters, eating up EVERYTHING from onions Star Gazer lilies, to the roots of Blackberry vines. !!!We tell everyone we can about your design & Ramik !!!
HAS IT WORKED AT ALL SO FAR??? THANK YOU FOR AN UPDATE!
@@tinagodsey1023 , YES IT HAS !!! It has really kept the vole population down ! Sorry, I somehow missed your question till just now.
@@rick7884 , talkative or not ~ HE SURE SAVED OUR GARDEN FROM THOSE LITTLE DEVILS THIS YEAR ! I am very grateful to him !
@@ellenfisher6341 busy world right now lol its ok
What materials did you use to make the trap?
To keep your vegetables safe cut a 6” deep by 3” wide trench around your garden and fill it with gravel. It will stop anything from tunneling in. Thanks for your video I am trying to save my dad’s yard from these little stinkers.
God bless you for sharing such helpful information ❤❤❤
Fab! Just have to get them out first! They’ve eaten 90% of my flowers so far
I will have to try this.
Sounds good at first, but giving it some thought, why wouldn't they just walk right across the gravel? After all, they don't only tunnel. I think if something looks good enough on the other side of the gravel "moat", voles would certainly walk across it.
Good to know, the rats destroyed my garden. I been using 5 gallon bucket traps and have caught several may have to try this one as well. Thanks for the info.
Hello how are you doing?
Thanks for the info, last summer I had a lot of tomato's that had the whole center eaten out of them and I had a net over around and to the ground so I know it was not birds. Also like you with the you tube each day I learn something, I'm going to be brilliant but not enough body left to do much.
Doc, I learn, I did not say "I can do"...lol. I do learn some crazy things on RUclips. I once lost a key to a fireproof lock box. A kid about 11 years old on a RUclips video used a paper clip and I had that box open in 15 seconds. Thanks for commenting!
Some kinds of caterpillars do that.
Love the intro, have a great day
Same to you
Love your video. Good information.
I thank you I have pissed down so many vole holes in ground I'm trying reclaim I was about to go caddyshack on them!
That’s a great idea of a feeder for the rodents, thanks for sharing that. I just found your videos, really enjoying them and getting some ideas. I just got 40 acres in Lafayette county and getting ready to clear some of it for a cabin and garden. It’s nothing but pine trees right now. I did find a big plum thicket and a bunch of dewberry bushes and some Mayhaw trees so that’s good
Thanks Trevor!
Exactly the reason I started doing videos myself. Make a difference.
Thanks for yours!
I am going to try this, as I have too many voles. Thanks for the tip.

We got rid of a very large infestation on our 2 acre irrigated yard. Bought a bag of gopher and vole poison pellets at out local farm and ranch store. Took 2 sections of the rigid shop vac tubes and a funnel and I would stick the tube down every little hole and the wife would dump a small scoop of pellets in each one. No bending over and it got the pellets down in a ways. It really worked.
Thank you for creating content! Hope your fencing worked to protect your garden from those deer! I just ordered the trap and bait you linked in the video description! Ty!
I live in a neighborhood with property sizes about 80X100 so I want to make these and give them to my neighbors 😆

That looks like a cool bait station Rick.
Thanks..It is simple to make and it is fairly safe for pets too.
Excellent video. Thanks
I am going to try this! Just moved into a house win the country with a serious vole problem in the back. Hope this works.
I caught one in a trap in my basement this week! I was surprised!
I knew I had voles when I saw trails eaten into my lawn from an empty lot next door. I will weedwack the overgrown grass and try to push them out of the area.
Great video. I’ve been building and using bait stations like this for over 10 years now with excellent results. I place them around my orchard during winter to keep the voles from girdling my young trees. I haven’t lost a single tree since I started using these. Mine are a more rudimentary design, just 1-1/4” tee with about 2’ top with a slip on cap and 8” on each of the ends. I cut the ends on a slight angle to create a little overhang to help keep some of the water out. I don’t use a rod in the tube, just stack the bait in the top and it works out just fine.
I really like the over hang cut you made. I did get some rain in mine and it caused some mold on the bottom cakes of poison. I will cut mine at an angle. Thanks!
I Love your trap, will look into getting one soon! 😊
Great video !very helpful, nice trap, gonna make one 4 sure, thks again
You are welcome.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this video!
Your welcome, your welcome and thanks for watching. This really works great.
Great video! Im next to farmers field on 2 acres and field rats and voles are plentiful. Im making those bait stations this weekend...its time for war!!!! Lol!!!!
@arkansasprepper here is the easiest way I’ve found to keep deer from eating my garden (without fence): put a bale of alfalfa out there. Deer come into my garden every single night, walk past my tomatoes and eat the bale. I live in the Sierra Nevada foothills, so there isn’t a ton of lush vegetation in the summer but they still prefer the dry alfalfa to nice moist veggies.
This is awesome. I subscribed. Thank you!
Tonia, I hope this helped and thank you for subbing. Have a wonderful day, Rick (aka ArkansasPrepper)
Thanks for this video.
Good information to know.
I will try this out.
That's a nice advice on creating content for youtube 👍
I would like to thank you for the information. I have come to a home depot store and purchased the materials to build two voles Traps to kill the once in my 3 acres heaven I have.
thank a lot✌️
Interesting that someone could patent something like this that people have been making and using for such a long time. The farmers here in Northern California use these a lot. I have two 4 inch PVC ones within about 100 foot of my house sitting on the river levee. The problem here is with ground squirrel boring holes in the levee. They're cute to watch running around and playing, and taking dust baths and stuff. But holes in the levee aren't a good thing.
I guess you could patent anything but can you sell it...lol.
Thanks I'm gonna give it a try. Great info!👍
Thanks!
Great video!!
Thanks!
I once had voles pulling my tulips out…. From the roots…. Underneath the ground! You see a tulip shaking like crazy and down it would. My husband thought I was crazy until he saw it
Great invention
Thanks, love you-tube too, lots of great tips and information on it. As my mom would say if someone has a better mouse trap , I’m willing to try it.
