My backyard faces a large green space. The backyard flower beds were being destroyed by animals digging. Topper identified the entry points into the yard and set traps. The traps successfully removed armadillos, possums and skunks from my yard and the digging stoppped.
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.
