Catching a Armadillo
 

So about 3 days ago I noticed something was screwing up my flower beds and landscaping. As days went by it got worse and worse. I decided to setup two game cams in the flower beds. I went and got a trap today and gonna try to catch ****ing thing tonight. Wish me luck!

Good Luck.

hahaha get em brandon! choot em

.22 rifle is bout the best trap you can get ;)

Thats what i wanted to do, but Animail Control said they will come pick it up and take the trap back so i said what the heck. Let them deal with it.

6pack and a 22 is what im thinkin. just like deer hunting.

Just shoot it..

Its coming out at different times and if I didnt have so much going on then i would. Drinking beer with a gun in my hand sounds like fun, but I have work and dont feel like wasting my time waiting on no dam armadillo

Moth balls will make him go away.....he'll move over to the neighbors yard ;)

Early evening, right before dark.
Or early morning right after dark.
Not easy to catch in a live trap.
I'd say choot 'em too.
When you choot 'em, they jump.

What bait you gonna use?

The whole leprosy thing scares me about armadillos, but I 'worked with' some people last year that would drop everything they were doing if an armadillo was around. They would gang up and chase it, and if it went in a hole they would dig it out. Says its just like pork:eek:

They are fun to chase around though, get a welding glove and grab one by the tail and chase people with it.

They told me to buy worms and sprouts and bait it with that.

Lmao!!!

Yep, they ain't too trap happy. My neighbor had coons living in her attic and I trapped em for her. Caught 3 the first night, gave em to a friend who eats em, but the next week I caught a couple opossums, and every neighborhood cat at least once:rotfl: Those coons are pretty smart, they see the others in the trap and they avoid it. I kinda liked watching them in my backyard and my dog liked to tree em, so I gave em a break.

Someone also told me that i didnt even need to bait it. If i just set it up he said just to set it up along the house with 2 2x6's spread out going to the trap because they are blind.

Live traps don't work good on armadillos.
Use some nutria traps. They catch everything.

Trip wire & C4 will get em also....;)

choot it

Put a pile of meth in there trap it then get drunk n watch it freak out all tweaked out in a cage,it prolly have a heart attack.....

I have walked up to them and kicked em before ,so I would think if they arent blind they pretty darn close.
