Armadillo Control

Armadillos digging up your yard or flower beds? We trap and remove armadillos in Garland and the Dallas area—plus help you prevent future digging without yard repair work.
Armadillos can cause serious damage by digging burrows around foundations, gardens, and flower beds. Topper’s Wildlife Removal provides armadillo control in Garland, TX, and across the Dallas area, using humane trapping methods to remove them and prevent future damage.

We start by locating active burrows and trails where armadillos are causing issues. Then we set up strategically placed traps and check them regularly until the animals are safely removed. Our methods are effective, safe, and customized to each property.

While we do not perform yard or landscaping repairs, we’ll give recommendations to reduce future activity, like addressing soil attractants or protecting certain areas. Our focus is long-term prevention through smart trapping and solutions, not temporary fixes.

If you’re waking up to new holes in your yard or signs of digging, book online or call Topper’s Wildlife Removal for dependable armadillo control in Garland and throughout DFW.

    I've had a great experience with Thomas at Topper's Wildlife Removal. He was at my house within 90 minutes of my first call. Within 24 hours he caught a rabbit which he removed immediatley. Thomas set 3 traps in the backyard. He comes out every other day to replace and replenish new bait/food, checks on things, possibly repositions traps, etc. And, within a few days of the first rabbit caught he caught another one. He picks up the rabbits the day they hit the trap. Additionally, Thomas is trying out a new product in my yard he might be offering soon -- for my yard, he used 6 little grey pods and/or cans he set 4 feet apart around my flower bed - it's like an aerosol repellent to deter rabbits - it's working as the green leaves are coming back and hopefully soon flowers. We are still testing it, that said, it seems promising. Thomas's communication via text regarding updating me has been outstanding. He is professional, knowledgeable and very honest. It's been a pleasure doing business with him. I highly recommend and endorse his services at Topper's Wildlife Removal.
