Because they consume large quantities of voles, barn owls can help to manage rodent populations in Idaho. This handy publication will help you to attract more of these natural predators with its detailed instructions (including a template) on how to build a barn owl box; where to place it; and how to maintain it. Soon you'll be providing habitat for birds while also helping to reduce the consequences of vole pressure.
