Armadillo Removal

Professional removal handles nuisance armadillos that are expanding their range dramatically across Oklahoma and Kansas. Schedule this service to quickly address the damage these destructive animals cause to your lawn and garden through burrowing and rooting. Armadillos, only the nine-banded species of which is found in the U.S., originally came from Central and South America and have proven to be destructive with few predators. We eliminate the problem through trapping and removal, then modify the habitat to guarantee they won’t return and cause recurring problems to your yard.

The nine-banded armadillo, whose name means "little-armored one," can be about 2.5 feet long and weighs an average of 12 pounds, living up to 20 years. Despite the common misconception, only two three-banded species can roll completely into a ball, while the nine-banded armadillo can have between 7 and 11 bands on its bony armor. These generalist feeders prefer warm, wet climates, using their sense of smell to track down food that is mostly insects and invertebrates, and they are the only non-human host of Mycobacterium leprae, the bacteria that causes leprosy.
