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.

    Toppers is the best!!!! We were having problems with an armadillo tearing up our mulch area and our new yard! Toppers set 2 traps and came out every other day to check the digging and to reposition the traps. It was a work in progress, but they succeeded in catching an adult armadillo with 9 bands! Thomas was always very responsive to our questions and texts. He also gave us tips and recommendations, which were very helpful. I cannot say enough great comments about their service. We texted Thomas on a Sunday to tell him we had an armadillo in the cage. He came out that same day to retrieve it. Most companies would have a voicemail telling you they are closed until Monday. Don't hesitate to call Toppers for any animal issues!
