Content: As the moles tunnel underground they uproot the soil and expose roots of trees, shrubs, plants and grass. Moles eat from 70% to 100% of their weight each day. This is because they burn so much energy digging. Voles like to nibble on the bark of fruit trees, ornamental plants, and plants in vegetable gardens. They usually eat grasses and weeds, but they also relish insects like gypsy moths, snails, and the remains of dead animals. In the fall, voles gather and store seeds, bulbs, tubers, and rhizomes. WHAT IS THE LIFECYCLE OF MOLES AND VOLES? The gestation period of moles is approximately 42 days. Three to five young are born, mainly in March and early April. The moles have only a few natural enemies because of their secluded life underground.
