Armadillo Trapping & Removal Service in Atlanta, GA


The nine-banded armadillo is expanding its range across the Southeast. In Atlanta, they:

  • Dig large holes and burrows near foundations, sidewalks, and driveways
  • Uproot landscaping, gardens, and flower beds
  • Damage irrigation systems and underground utilities
  • Leave open burrows that attract snakes and other pests

If you see dirt piles, shallow holes, or actual burrows around your home or building, chances are an armadillo is the culprit.


We donโ€™t guess โ€” we trap and remove effectively:

  • Property inspection for burrows and travel routes
  • Use of specialized, humane traps placed near active zones
  • Daily trap checks and relocation per Georgia regulations
  • Entry prevention using physical deterrents and barriers

We never use poisons or bait stations โ€” just proven trapping and exclusion to stop damage fast.


From suburban lawns to commercial landscaping, we provide armadillo control for all types of properties:

  • Single-family homes
  • Apartment complexes
  • Golf courses and green spaces
  • Churches, parks, and schools
  • Retail strips and offices

How do you know if an armadillo is on your property?
Look for burrows near foundations, small cone-shaped holes in the lawn, or overturned soil beds. Armadillos are nocturnal and dig extensively.

Can armadillos damage my house?
Yes. Their burrowing can weaken structures, crack foundations, and destroy irrigation or utility lines underground.

Is armadillo trapping legal in Georgia?
Yes โ€” but it must be done humanely and according to DNR guidelines. Thatโ€™s why weโ€™re fully licensed and insured.

What happens after you remove the animal?
We provide recommendations for exclusion and habitat modification to help keep armadillos from returning.
