How do you rid your garden of voles?

I've used Molemax spray, poison, traps, water bucket...to no avail. They are eating my flower roots and destroying my lawn.

Voles are not destroying your laen that is moles.For moles use a grub contol,for voles use castor oil ,and sprays with hot pepper and garlic
Try ShakeAway it has coyote urine and mint in it and rodents don't like the smell it comes in a 5 lb shake container and works well for us. Sprinkle it all over your garden. It's relatively hard to find but Amazon has it. It's pricey but totally works
My daffodils have been protecting my tulip bulbs and would guess they do not like them. I'm not sure you might want to try a conservation office to see the best way they think. Seems like they should know.
One day i found a stray mini Doxi Dog outside my front door, when no one ever claimed her, i adopted her... She is a great mole hunter & dug up all the ones in my yard - killing each one until they finally were all gone! I have heard other people say that doxie's are great mouse & mole hunters/killers, Maybe you have a friend that owns one!?.
Get grub killer. They are feeding on the grubs. Kill the food and they leave.
i bought a spray that attaches to the hose specifically for moles and it wasn't cheap but it worked. looked at the ingredients afterwards, and all it was was caster oil. i saved the container so should i ever get moles again, i'm buying a jar of caster oil(much cheaper at the grocery store) and using that.
when I plant bulbs, I make a bowl out of wire and put the bulbs in the wire then plant the whole thing, the bulbs are protected from the moles, in most cases it works for me ,
