I’ve had a interesting morning. So far we haven’t needed a visit to the Vet or ER. If you have advice on getting rid of the armadillo tunneling under my enclosed patio, please let me know. Thank you. Less is more. | ||

Live trap....the local Department of Conservation loans them out in this area. | |||

I just went trough this mess with Armadillos. I tried the fox urine and it did not work. I ended up with a couple of live traps that solved the problem. You set these traps along walls or fences where the animals like to travel. I put a few branches down as funnels into the traps. There is no bait to be used just stumble luck the animal walks into the trap. I nabbed three of them and then let them go in a wooded area miles away. No more problem. Northern tool has the traps if you have one near by. | |||

One question, why haul them off and let them go, then they may become someone else’s problem. Why not just kill them, and drop them off in a wooded area to feed the local scavengers. No more problems with dillars and the local scavengers might not get into someone’s chicken coupe or keep them from attacking someone’s pet. | |||

County Animal Control & State Wildlife passed the buck. (Raccoons, Possums, armadillos - are my problem) 9mm is logical, a bit much as School nearby. I slowly flooded his burrow and then blasted him with high pressure water to vamoose. Traps if he/they return. Less is more. | |||

That is illegal in VA: It is illegal in the State of Virginia to trap and relocate an animal to another area. https://www.dgif.virginia.gov/wildlife/nuisance/ 41 | |||

Big enough for a Ford F-450 turbo diesel dually. Your 'dillo would die from the trees felled for the environmental impact statement. Nice is overrated "It's every freedom-loving individual's duty to lie to the government." Airsoftguy, June 29, 2018 | |||

Use AP ammo. There was a case of a guy in Texas recently who shot one with a .38 and got hit in the face by the ricochet. details I have my own style of humor. I call it Snarkasm. | |||

I have seen that story in the past but have to call Bullshit! I don't doubt the guy caught a ricochet, but growing up in Texas, I never had any trouble killing em dead with just a .22 long rifle. | |||

The wife did not want me to kill it. I would have tossed the cage and all to the bottom of our pool for an hour or so then tossed the critter elsewhere but the big boss wanted me to do otherwise. | |||

Yep. They aren't magic. If that idiot convinced the cops his bullet ricocheted off an armadillo, shame on the cops. | |||

Do you know why the chicken crossed the road? To show the armadillo that it could be done. Regards, arlen ====================== Some days, it's just not worth the effort of chewing through the leather straps. ====================== | |||
