If the Yukon plant is yellowing down is ok to dig potatoes for storage. Do not wash the potatoes, dirt and all let them dry in a shaded cool area so the skin to get thicker before you dust the dirt out gently and store them.
If the plant is still with flowers I think the potatoes might not store well is better to eat them.
Never heard of shrews but glad I don't have it! Next year try growing a blue potato, little pests like it~
