No Cats & Dogs
The Nine-Banded Armadillo often becomes a problem due to its constant digging habits. These resourceful creatures can live in almost any environment, but their powerful claws can harm buried pipes, and their tunnels may weaken the ground under structures.
Beyond structural damage, armadillos may also create health issues since they are known to carry the bacteria responsible for Hansen’s disease (leprosy). Quick and careful removal is necessary to avoid property damage and lower the chances of disease spread.
Although armadillo-borne diseases are rare, infections are still possible through direct handling or consuming their meat. Even deceased animals or improperly cooked meat can still contain infectious bacteria and viruses. Leprosy is the best-known concern, but they can also carry parasitic worms and, in rare situations, rabies. To stay safe, always let certified wildlife professionals manage the removal process.
Spotting armadillos can be hard since they’re mostly active at night, but colder weather can bring them out in daylight. These animals dig using their snouts and love soft soil, often leaving signs like dug-up plants, shallow holes, or trails from scavenging. They are drawn to yards with thick ground cover, food odors, or firewood piles.
If an armadillo is tearing up your lawn or burrowing under sheds, don’t delay. Because they may spread diseases, it’s safest to let the pros handle it. Critter Bro offers no-cost inspections to detect signs of armadillos, examine any damage, and prepare a custom removal and prevention strategy.
Trapping and sealing off entry points is the safest method to remove an armadillo from beneath a home. But the process may be tricky and comes with possible disease exposure through close interaction. For a proper, humane outcome, hire trained specialists.
