<< The
problem we are having in now is Armadillos. They migrate up from Arkansas
during the summer and they are as bad as pigs. They root and make big holes
all in the yard and everything that you plant, they root out. The problem
is they mostly come out at night so we can't get them. Does anyone have
any remedy for them? Arkansas, do you have a solution? I am getting
desperate. >>
Jean,
I sympathize with the problems. Living here in Louisiana. I've had them
make my yard look like I've had a golf practice field with all the divets they
left. The problem with them is that they are looking for mealy worms in the
soil. Our Agri/Home extension agents tell us to get rid of their source of
food and you get rid of them. I forget what insectide they recommend to kill
them, I think it was Dursban? I'm sure if that is not right, someone will
correct me.
