  1. That looked like deer dropping and armadillos tear up the yard like that digging for grubs. Go out at night with a spotlight they are nocturnal you may catch it in the act. When your dogs are barking is a good time to check. They will test your sod up

  3. It is definitely an armadillo!!!! I’ve had several on my property. One dug just the same kind of burrow under my 500 gallon propane tank. My neighbor had a burrow in his west forty. He hunted them with my dog and we got steak for dinner when she brought it to him to shoot! They are hungry for grub worms, which are June beetle larvae. Their main staple of food. I’ve watched them dig at night as I worked Late. They are good for the environment as they help eradicate underground larvae including wireworms. I’d fence the Garden well and let the Armadillo help eradicate the bad bug larvae. Less bugs coming to fruition is better all around!

  4. Hello Cog Hill Couple, Regarding the Burrow We do not have Armadillos here in the southern Appalachian mountains in PA. But we have foxes, rabbits, raccoons, and groundhogs. They all use holes that look like yours. It is usually on a little ridge like yours and there are usually multiple entrances/exits. Some times a groundhog den becomes a rabbit warren and may be surprisingly extensive. Possums and skunks will often dig little holes looking for the grubs of Japanese beetles, cicadas, and the grubs from other beetles like June bugs etc. As long as they find them they will hang around. The grubs seem to be a good food source for the critters. They will really dig up my home orchard area or the lawn as we are organic and use no poison sprays. The den holes can sometimes be along a field edge, fence row or along a little rise and usually there are some trees nearby. I watch you folks everyday, and always enjoy you folks…. Blessings to you. Rick

  5. I mainly have rabbits as my major pest, and their damage looks nothing like what you have. Their burrows are literally shallow holes on the ground, and they don't cause as much damage as your seeing.
