Houston Armadillo Control & Removal

Ah, the good old Texas Turkey, or Nine-Banded Armadillo. These unusual creatures are common in Texas. They have a bony shell with nine segments, and this provides them with protection. They have a tiny mouth, and they eat insects. They mostly feed on earthworms, which they dig out of the ground. In doing so, they often tear up lawns and landscaping. They also dig burrows in which they live or escape from predators (though the automobile appears to be their most dangerous foe). They dig these burrows anywhere, including right next to your house or under some other part of the building, and they can really remove a lot of dirt, leaving a huge mound next to the house, and less dirt underneath the foundation, which can lead to cracking. If you want an armadillo removed, we can do so, and we humanely trap the animals.
