There are so many youtubers I watch the videos of but you are the only person who makes me happy when I see you. You and I would have been very good friends if you and I knew each other. You are a very good soul. May God guide you to the straight path and keep you healthy wealthy and wise.

I had a live trap trying to catch a Houdini raccoon but he kept jumping the trigger and eating the bait. Solution was to set a mouse trap inside with peanut butter and when it smacked his nose he jumped and hit the trigger, got him! FYI trappers

Love this, very educational. Thanks

I can tell how not to catch one... Lol. We had a smoke house(old)behind the house at the farm. Good friend and I saw a dillo go under it one night. He ran to the truck and got a hoe. Long handled. We were standing on the same corner on opposite sides. He decided to take that hoe handle and ran it under the smokehouse. That thing came out on my side and went up my leg to my waist, I kid you not! Now I'm a country girl so I can handle most things but I screamed like a banshee it scared me so bad. I was NOT expecting that. My friend fell over literally on the ground and laughed FOREVER. 😂 I laughed too but not as much as he did.... Lol God rest his soul. The Lord called him home about 3 years ago. We had lots of fun at that farm. Sorry such a long post.

I get a good education every time I whatch you thanks that's the way we learn ........ come on

I think you can use a piece of asphalt (black Top in Jasper County, Ms) as bait. They bound to eat that as many as you see on the road.

Bad joke

i was wondering if mashed up worms would be good bait?

My dad has us building box traps 60 years ago. Simple and cheap. We trapped rabbits, skunks and rats in those things. Cheers!

Hi. Enjoyed your video. Armadillos are driving me crazy digging up my yard! I didn’t know opossums dug holes like a dillo does. What do I use to secure boards if I don’t have wire stakes? Btw, I caught an opossum in it but let it go bcuz they help create anti-venoms for snakes & scorpions

The Trapper of ALL Trades. We see Armadillos up here in the Midwest along the Highways. They travel on the Roads like the rest of us. 😬👍

Great video brother!!!

David , if u see this.. what do u recommend for me... I got raccoons, possums, and cats , I need to kill the armadillos, but I don't stay up late enough for go out and shoot um. Should I just guide them into my metal trap? Maybe around the torn up yard? I don't know what to bait it with bc of the coons, possums, and cats that I don't want to catch... but I just need one to use ur cardboard method.. should I guide it in & hope for the best ?

Man you gonna get that leprechaun disease and your fingers going to fall off from touching those things.

How much do you charge a golf course per armadillo you catch? I may have found my winter job…

How sensitive are armadillos to human scent ? Is it necessary to wear rubber boots, gloves etc. when setting and /or checking traps ? Thanks, Les

They are not at all put off by human scent.

Are you saying using bait (mealworms, sardines, eggs, fruit, spoiled meat) is a waste of time? Are you saying the only thing that makes them go in the trap is if it has the scent of armadillo? Most of us don't have scented cages, so cages would be a waste of time for most of us. Also, what do you thing about repellants? Do they work or are they a waste of time? I've read castor oil, cayenne pepper and vinegar are best for repelling them. What say you? Also, do you know if an air (BB) gun with a CO2 cartridge is enough to kill an armadillo or pierce its armor?

Wood box is the way to go! Caught hundreds with wood box and 2x4 funnel leading them right into it!

Don't know if anyone sells wooden ones, but you can google the plans. The biggest tool you would need to build one is a circular saw. If you can build a 12 x 12 x 40 inch box, you can build this trap.

Look at the opening near the trap at bottom of house. They might get more animals living there.

You can use sardines for bait!

I'd be bleaching the crap out of any trap I put my hands in or wear a hazmat suit handling those boxes since half of armadillos carry leprosy.

2 Questions?? 1. What do you do with the armadillo after you catch it? 2. What about the leprosy they carry?

I need your help man!! I got armadillo problem 😕 I'm trying to catch him

They dig under the house here in Florida, sleep all day and dig my yard at night.

I’ve caught many armadillos in my wire trap by using that guide method when they have dug under my fence. They make one heck of a mess digging up grub worms. I’ve released several of them away from everyone at my local lake. Catch and release.

I have been trapping rabbits - I am getting one every day. Little B@stards are destroying my lawn.

By the looks of that house you should start a painting business too.😁 Very interesting video.

HELLOOOOO Brother God bless you!!

You're fantastic brother I look forward to meeting you and your family One Day in heaven cook me up some barbecue when we get there😀

I out up a armadillo electric fence & not 1 hole for 4'yrs. Traps nope, I tried everything out there.

What about skunks they tear up the yard too

22 works great to just loose sleep waiting 😂🤷‍♂️

Can you drown an armadillo?

Another fine lesson, this time on Amadillo ????

I tried a have a heart trap, the diller got out of it three times. They’re strong critters, the trap wouldn’t hold him. I may try building a plywood trap.

In my northeastern wi yard, i get small-med sized holes (not tunnels or rooting) all over my back yard, particularly in the fall. People tell me it's skunks but i seldom smell 'em so i tend to think it's ground hogs.

@noahsmith8988 Many years ago, armadillos had burrowed under a structure that contained all the water and waste plumbing of a house we used as a hunting camp. It was under a house built up off the ground. Decided the armadillos had to go or all the gravel used as insulation was gonna spill out. Put plywood over all their holes but one. Put a hose in the last hole. Turned on the hose and waited. Took a lot longer than I expected for the first one to appear. Shot him in the head at point blank range with a 1911. Then the next, and the next and then they were lifting up some of the plywood and coming out. What evolved in those few minutes is still described as the great armadillo shootout. Even though shot in the head, they still bounce around. Kicking those away and shooting the next one.

Darn that is what my yard looks like. I managed to trap about 10 critters with the same wooden trap, but more of them keep coming. It is a non-stop process from spring to autumn, trapping and releasing armadillos.
