We have armadillo problems in my neck of the woods. Talk about destroying your yard, flower beds...every thing.

Insert hose in the hole. When they dig out to the surface….. smash

Get an air gun and a thermal scope 😉. Or if you have enough land and neighbors that aren’t close, just use a .22

Update: Things were calm for a few days, but 1 or multiple are back. Going to say fuck it and drown them out with a water hose. There's one opening clear as day and I'm over it.

You could try feeding J.im into a wood chipper and spreading the remains all over your yard

I've had problems all summer as I've only killed 1 and I know there are more. I water my grass about 3 times a week in the summer and the neighbors around me don't water at all. It's been a dry summer and I feel like every mole in our neighborhood is under my lawn.

Buddy of mine suggested spraying MoleMax. I just did it this last weekend and used 2 bottles when it suggested 1 bottle for every 10,000 sq. ft. to get these bastards gone. You will see increased mole activity for a day or two. It's been less then a week but I think it might be working. It says it only keeps them away for about 3-4 months but come spring I'll either spray the boundary or the entire lawn again. God speed my friend!

I bought a two-pack of those things a couple years ago. Followed all of the expert recommendations: zero kills. Toss ‘em in the garbage last fall.

I just walk over the top of the old tunnels, and when I get to a new section I walk slowly with a suppressed S&W M&P .22 LR rifle and fill the tunnel with boolits every 2” or so. I have found this to be an aesthetically pleasing approach to mole eradication, and the use of the suppressed rounds ensures neighborly cooperation & support.

This is the only way
