The problem
Armadillo Removal That Gets to the Source
Nine-banded armadillos dig at night for grubs and insects, leaving holes all over lawns and flower beds. Worse, they dig burrows under slabs, sidewalks, driveways and foundations, which can undermine them over time.
We trap armadillos, remove them from your property and close off the burrows. We can also put up barriers along foundations and decks to keep new ones from digging in.
Signs of armadillos
- Small holes dug all over the lawn overnight
- Burrows along the slab, porch or driveway
- Uprooted plants and torn-up flower beds
- Soil pushed out from under the foundation
- Activity mostly at night
Why here
Why Armadillos Are So Common in Louisiana
Soft, damp Louisiana soil full of grubs and insects is exactly what armadillos look for, and slabs, porches and sheds give them good places to burrow.
How we treat it
Our Armadillo Removal Process
Inspection
Finding active burrows and where they're feeding.
Trapping and removal
Traps placed along their travel paths and the armadillo removed.
Close the burrows
Burrows filled and closed once the animal is out.
Barriers
Buried barriers along foundations, porches and decks to stop new digging.
Armadillo trapping is billed per visit or per animal. Barrier work is quoted after inspection. See wildlife removal for plans and details.
Why is an armadillo digging in my yard?
It's feeding on grubs, worms and insects in the soil. Moist lawns after rain are a favorite.
Can armadillos damage my foundation?
Their burrows under slabs, sidewalks and driveways can wash out soil and undermine them over time.
Is it safe to handle an armadillo?
No. Armadillos can carry disease, so don't handle them. Let us trap and remove them.
Will they come back?
New armadillos can move in if burrows stay open. Closing burrows and adding barriers keeps them out.
