This is not the first time I have seen this guy last time I found out that a pellet gun won't hurt him. I put out a live trap and got two possums in one trap LOL I trying to find his home now I have tow sheds that he can be living under. I now have some .22 bullets for him. Seems its hard to bait a armadillo. Click the photo to see him doing his/her thing

when trying to trap a dillow you have to funnel them into the trap.. Set trap where you see him entering your yard... Then use boards in a v shape gong out from the trap door.. There nose is always to the ground they will follow it into the trap!!!
Kids who hunt and fish dont dont "steel or deal"

Yep I have seen that as the way to trap them I just got to fine his path.
I am moving the cam every two nights to see if I can find his path.

They're a pain in the azz to trap, you basically have to get them to wander into the trap without baiting it. Baiting it will likely only get possums and raccoons at night.

I have one I have been hunting for a couple of weeks. Roots like a hog, and all the holes have that unmistakable diamond shape. Every night, walk the place with a spotlight and 12 gauge. All I have seen so far is a skinny opossum. Next morning, more holes. I WILL get him!

Yes, a .22 bullet in the side just behind the front leg joint should do it...or you could just run it down and pick it up by the tail and play toss the dillo with your buds...
