Armadillo Removal

Armadillos dig up lawns and flower beds looking for grubs, and their burrows can undermine walkways, patios and foundations. We remove them humanely and shape the yard so they do not find it worth coming back.

Questions

Common questions

Why are armadillos digging in my yard?

Mostly for grubs and insects in the soil. A lawn that is rich in grubs is a buffet, so controlling that food source helps keep them away.

Can their burrows hurt my house?

Burrows next to slabs, steps and walkways can wash out soil and cause settling over time, so it is worth dealing with them early.
