Need armadillo trapping that works? This Ain't Our First Rodeo! We'll remove these lawn destroyers for good!
Those armored lawn wreckers are at it again! Armadillos might look harmless, but their relentless digging can tear up your yard, ruin gardens, and even damage foundations. And with potential health risks like leprosy, these backyard bulldozers are more than just a nuisance.
That's why professional armadillo trapping is the smart solution. Whether you're in DFW, Austin, or Oklahoma City, Critter Stop's humane removal services protect your property - and your peace of mind - from these destructive diggers.
Understanding the Real Threats Armadillos Bring to Your Home
Armadillos can cause serious property damage with their burrowing and uprooting. They may also carry diseases and attract pests, posing risks to your home and health.
Lawn Destruction
Armadillos destroy lawns by digging holes and uprooting grass in search of insects and grubs, leaving behind unsightly mounds and patches. Their burrowing disrupts soil stability, damaging landscaping and making areas uneven.
Structural Damage
They can cause structural damage by burrowing near foundations, driveways, and sidewalks, compromising their stability. These tunnels weaken the ground, leading to cracks or shifts in structures over time
Irrigation Issues
Armadillos can create irrigation issues by disturbing underground water systems while digging for food. Their burrows can damage pipes, redirect water flow, and lead to leaks. This can cause inefficient watering and increased maintenance costs.
Health Concerns
Armadillos pose health concerns as they can carry diseases like leprosy and transmit harmful bacteria through their droppings or contact. Their digging can also disturb soil and spread parasites, creating risks for humans and pets.

Critter Stop offers free consultations for expert armadillo trapping solutions. Our team performs thorough inspections to assess damage, burrows, and activity patterns. We then develop a customized armadillo trapping plan to effectively resolve your wildlife issue.
Seal Your home / remove the Critters
Our priority is sealing your home by securing all potential entry points, from the roof to the foundation. The exclusion team ensures every gap is thoroughly patched. Once everything is sealed up, we will set traps/cameras to capture and safely remove the critter.
Restore & Sanitize
Removing the critter is just the beginning there’s more to do! We fully restore your space by replacing damaged insulation and fogging the area to disinfect and eliminate animal pheromones. This ensures your home stays protected from future infestations.
How to Spot Armadillo Activity on Your Property
Spotting armadillo activity? Look for burrows near foundations, uprooted plants, and tracks in your yard clear signs these diggers are nearby.
Visible Burrows
A visible burrow is a clear sign of armadillo activity, as these animals dig extensive tunnels for shelter and food storage. These burrows often appear near foundations, gardens, or wooded areas, indicating their presence and potential for property damage.
Damaged Lawns
Damaged lawns often signal the need for professional armadillo trapping services. These pests dig shallow holes while hunting insects, leaving behind unsightly patches and uprooted grass. If you spot these signs, you must quickly resolve your yard invasion.
Unusual Tracks
Unusual tracks can signal armadillo activity, as their distinctive four-toed front and five-toed back footprints are often left in soft soil. These tracks, combined with tail drag marks, are clear evidence of their presence on your property.

I can’t say enough great things about Critter Stop, especially Tyler! He was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Tyler was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to clearly explain everything so we knew exactly what was going on and what to expect. What really stood out was his attention to detail and genuine care for doing the job right. He didn’t rush through anything—he made sure the issue was fully addressed and went the extra mile to help prevent future problems. It’s rare to find someone who is both highly skilled and so easy to work with. Tyler was also incredibly respectful of our home and made the whole process stress-free. You can tell he takes pride in his work and truly cares about his customers. If you’re dealing with any kind of critter issue, I highly recommend Critter Stop—and definitely ask for Tyler. You’ll be in excellent hands!
The company did a great job. The staff was very professional, polite, and effective. They had to come back several times to solve our problem, and they did so without asking for additional funding. Very, very pleased with this company.
These awesome guys showed right when they said they would and were happy to answer any questions I had while they were plugging all the gaps in the home's exterior.
Jared, Noah, and Chris did a great job on my Permanent Rodent Solution. They did a thorough job to sanitize and stop some pesky squirrels that were making my attic their home. Excellent work and I highly recommend this company!
These guys are incredible. Like everyone at Critter Stop since we started using them, Tyler and Gabriel were phenomenal today. Always so professional, thorough and genuinely care. Thank you!!
I had my first service today. We will see how things turn out. John provided exceptional service! He was very personable, professional and informative. John was awesome.
Cynthia came to our home today to exterminate wasps - they had a big nest on the front of our house. She is VERY knowledgeable about insects and did a great job!
Found myself with a critter in a trap. Called CritterStop and two hours later, Justin came and got it from me. Relocated it and problem solved. I am sure there will be more critters in the future and I will call them.
Christian & Aaron, were very professional and knowledgeable. I would recommend this company to many friends. Keep the guys around great customer service.
Tyler provided excellent service with the removal of a raccoon in our attic. He was prompt, courteous, professional, and took the initiative to finalize the service. Did great work sealing up and repairing damage. Truly an asset to the company. Would definitely recommend.
Tyler communicated he was heading to my home, arrived when he mentioned he would. Got into my attic to remove a dead rat, found it within 10 minutes, removed it, and I couldn’t be happier. Our home had stunk in one room, and he came in and took care of it promptly! Clear communication and professional! So happy he is a part of Critter Stop! Now me and my wife can sleep comfortably!
Tyler, Gabriel, Noah, and Landon have all been amazing! They’ve responded quickly, super communicative and overall given us above and beyond service. Can’t recommend enough!
Cynthia arrived on time as promised and performed the monthly service on our bait stations. She's extremely knowledgeable, customer service oriented and very professional. She's always able to answer all my concerns and questions about my pest control service. I highly recommend using Critter Stip for your pest control needs.
Definitely reccomend Critter Stop! Adrian and his crew are trustworthy professionals. We had a full attic restoration performed after mice got into our attic and chewed through our PEX. Very happy with the finished job.
Critter Stop exceeded every expectation I had. I called them after discovering I had unexpected houseguests living rent-free in my attic… a raccoon and her babies. At some point, she fully moved in, had her children, and I am pretty sure she was one throw pillow away from filing for homestead rights.
From the very first call, their responsiveness was incredibly impressive. They got back to me quickly and made the entire process feel easy and stress-free, which is saying a lot when you are lying in bed at night, wondering how many tiny hands are currently rearranging your insulation or hosting what sounds like a full CrossFit class above your ceiling. Their communication was excellent, both when scheduling the appointment and keeping me updated on arrival time. No guessing, no waiting, no spiraling into worst-case scenarios at 2 a.m. while googling “can raccoons chew through drywall and make eye contact.”
Adrian was outstanding. He was incredibly knowledgeable, calm, and respectful, and took the time to explain everything in a way that made me feel like I was not completely losing control of my own home. He handled the situation like it was just another Tuesday, while I was mentally preparing to list my house “lightly used, recently occupied by woodland creatures” and let the raccoons keep it. What stood out most was his integrity. There was no pressure, no upselling, and no dramatic “you need everything replaced immediately” speech. Just honest recommendations and real solutions.
If a raccoon ever decides to start a family in your attic and treat your home like an all-inclusive resort, skip the panic and call Critter Stop. I could not recommend them more highly.
Adrian did a fantastic job. He checked for entry points for critters during the inspection, provided tips on how to deal with problems in the future, and solved my immediate issue in the same visit. Excellent service.
I'm happy to say the critter stop personal who worked on my house today were very professional, they were David, Garrett and Pili, all there were friendly, professional and very knowledgable of the work needed. I have never been disappointed in their workmanship and courtesy. I hope to see them again on the next go around, thank you... Ron Hopson 06/09/2026
Cynthia did a fantastic job! She explained everything so thoroughly and you can tell she loves bugs and her job! She is so sweet and has excellent customer service skills. I love that she taught me something without it feeling like a lesson!
Reliable, honest, communicative, fair and will always be in my top contacts! The entire team - from reception to doing the dirty work - stellar all around! Couldn't recommend enough. They TRULY care!!!
We had a raccoon in our attic and Critter Stop put an end to that! The critter got away, but our attic is now safe from further invasion! Thank you very much. My sleepless nights are over!!
Manda is the best! She taught us about mosquitos and the products that make them infertile. That was so interesting! She is such a great person, loves all animals and protects and rescues them at all costs. Some employees in similar fields put animals down fairly often, oh, not my girl Manda! She will set live traps and wait for them. Sometimes she leave a and swings back around to get them. But she never forgets a single soul in a trap. She protects them and the families who want the critter removed and relocated. I can't think of a better person for this job. It's a lifestyle for her I assume. Although she is small, she is buff and mighty! Her example of all the things a woman can do have inspired me to go after my dream of protecting others. I have changed my major as a return student. Ladies, we can do anything! If you don't believe me, call credit control and request only Amanda to come out to your place. You will meet one of the strongest women on the planet.
This company will not give you before and after pictures of the work they claim to have done. Their workers are stretched and stressed as admitted by one of their own workers. You will receive zero response from them when you have questions. They will charge you and ignore your requests. They claimed I had rats and 2 ringtails but nothing was caught in traps or on video. I asked for before and after photos of the areas they sealed and they wouldn’t provide them. Select a better company.
Ask for Jordan at Critter Stop. He showed up on time, identified a raccoon that had torn through my soffit and started nesting in my attic, smoked the attic to clear it out, and helped me develop a solution that saved me hundreds of dollars.
What impressed me most was his honesty. There was no upselling and no pressure—just straightforward advice, expert knowledge, and a genuine desire to help solve the problem the right way.
It's rare to find that kind of integrity and customer service today. I highly recommend Jordan and Critter Stop for any wildlife or animal control needs.
Jacob, James, and Jordan have done absolutely amazing work for our community. They are professional, communicative, and do a thorough and great job every time. Thank you!
We decided to go with Critter Stop after discovering a family of ringtails in our attic, and we’re so glad we did. We worked with Jacob in Austin, and I really appreciated how much time he took to explain the estimate and walk me through everything that was happening. We’re very grateful for the care and thoroughness he put into the job, and I would highly recommend Critter Stop to anyone needing their services.

Tyler was great! Very professional and communicated clearly. On time and efficient! Thank you Critter stop for helping with our rodent problem
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does armadillo removal cost?
An average armadillo removal job costs around $450-$650. Every home and armadillo invasion is unique. We price based on features on the home, square footage of the home, the severity of the infestation, whether you have a tight crawl space or a big open attic, landscaping around the home (determines how hard it is to get to entry points), steepness of the roof (determines how long it will take), if we have to harness in, etc. Each client receives an itemized list of everything they are charged for and the cost of each item. Since we cannot provide accurate pricing over the phone, we offer free inspections and estimates!
Are your removal methods safe for kids and pets?
Yes, our removal methods are completely safe for kids and pets. At Critter Stop, we use humane techniques and products to ensure the safety of your family while effectively addressing the armadillo problem.
Should i be worried about armadillo burrows in my yard?
Yes. Armadillos are known to burrow under structures such as houses and sheds. They remove rock piles and dirt, which can damage the foundation and lead to costly repairs. In addition, armadillo burrowing can make the structure unstable, which can be dangerous for your family.
How quickly can you remove armadillos from my home?
The time it takes to remove armadillos from your home depends on the severity of the infestation. At Critter Stop, we aim to address the issue as quickly and efficiently as possible, creating a customized plan tailored to the specific issue in your home. Our team will provide you with all the details about the removal process, ensuring transparency and effective results.
How can I keep armadillos away?
Various armadillo deterrents, ranging from natural remedies to high-tech solutions, are available on the market. Some people swear by using mothballs or predator urine to keep armadillos away, while others prefer to install physical barriers or sonic repellents.
Can I handle armadillo removal myself?
While DIY removal may seem cheaper at face value, it is inefficient and ultimately more expensive in the long run. Professional armadillo removal addresses the problem at the root and removes the armadillos while keeping your family and pets safe.
