Small rodents come out at night to avoid predators under the cover of darkness. Owls hunt at night. If we wish to decrease a rodent population, what could people do to help owls hunt more effectively?
Perhaps provide dim light. What color? Probably want to prevent the light from shining or reflecting upward so the owl can remain in the dark until the last possible moment.
Probably remove opportunities for cover for the rodent: trees, bushes, tall grass? Remove human structures and objects that the rodent can get under.
