Shame on you, for wanting to poison and kill armadillos! I'm not exactly an environmentalist or animal-rights activist or anything, but there's never any reason to
poison or kill armadillos. If you don't want them around, it's a simple matter to trap and remove them from the area. In fact, there's no such thing as an armadillo
poison. Armadillos only eat food that they dig out of the ground, such as earthworms and grubs. They won't eat any food on the surface.
Here I am holding a small armadillo. They can be easily caught and moved to a new area.
There are no legal or effective armadillo poisons available. Armadillos dig for their food, usually earthworms or grubs. They won't eat any foods on the surface of
the ground, and therefore even if there were a legal poison, they would never eat it.
If you simply want to kill armadillos, not necessarily by poison, but perhaps via gun, because you are an armadillo hunter, or by lethal trap, such as a body-grip
connibear style trap, I suppose you could do so if it's legal in your area. However, if you just don't want them on your property, the easiest and most effective
manner of solving the problem is to trap and remove them in live cage traps. It's much much easier than resorting to lethal methods. If you want a professional to
