I am having problems armadillo digging up my yard. Large holes! All over. You could hurt yourself if not watching where you walk. I need help. Anything that I can spray? Tried traping, that didn’t work! Human hair didn’t work! Any thoughts?

My problem were a momma and her baby raccoons who moved in one winter and decided to stay. They clawed through my porch roof and found the attic to their liking. Since I live in a watershed destroying them was not allowed (not that I’d hurt an animal) so I made sure they were gone one sunny day, repaired the porch and laid in wait for them to come back that night. I was packing a bb gun and made sure I did nothing more than sting their butts. NEVER saw ANY of them ever again!

I sure can relate Pards! Only it’s Packrats for me. I hate those sobs!!! They destroy so much stuff. Too big and smart for rat and live traps, the poison isn’t working anymore because they have been educated. I have taken to loading my .45 with shot shells and actually hunting them. I shoot ‘em on sight. It just takes patience!

Chipmunks have over taken our gardens and our lawn. It is war. They are no longer cute. PLEASE help. We have tried the poison peanuts, they toss them out! I really do not want to harm them but there are so many now and they done ticked me off
Thanks for any suggestions

Squirrels have devastated my garden. Dug little holes right into every seedling. As I see it, there isnt much I can do. Does anyone have a way to keep those little devils out of my garden ?
