You can try to protect individual plants using wire mesh to stop the immediate damage, however if the vole population is high you may need to take additional measures. The following web pages discuss voles and their control in depth. You may need to cut and paste the complete url into your browser ot make it work correctly.

Your local Cornell extension may also have suggestions on control measures you could use in a home garden/landscape situation.
