Apparently doc, humans can eat armadillos although they have been know to carry leprosy.

You have grubs Dr. Leap. Get rid of the grubs, and the armadillos will dig holes elsewhere. If you want to do it in a way that is safe for the pups, you can spread nematodes (costly but cheap). Also, you have to treat your yard at different stages of the grubs life cycle, but once you do, you will not have to for several years. Yes, I am speaking from experience.

Edwin, Don and I put up with moles and voles. Just leave the armadillos at peace. You’ll be at peace, too. Lola Murray

Ed, you really do have a keen understanding of dogs. As for the armadillos, just go ahead and shoot 'em!

I feel your pain. We have voles...many, many voles. I've suggested going full Caddyshack on them, but have been reminded we live in the suburbs and the neighborhood might frown on that.
