    Armadillo's in Upstate of SC? Yep. Anyone have to deal with them as a pest? I have sightings and a photo, but no damage yet. I want to know if I should get aggressive and go ahead and attempt to trap, hunt, or wait to see. I know that they can cause extensive damage. We do have a lot of green space around, so maybe they won't cause issues, but I am not very optimistic. Thanks.

    Great state for wildlife. I saw a bear at Barefoot Landing during spring break. Thought I saw a coyote roadkill somewhere in the Carolina's. I know Myrtle Beach is a long way from you though. I would shoot them personally. Good luck. Kenneth Ingram, UMD.

    Nice...we regularly use a nasty, hot cayenne pepper in the edges of the bunkers to keep the coyotes from digging up the drain lines. I am not sure what they think is in there...

    The armadillo hasn't shown his head again, but I am awaiting his appearance around the same time grubs come up to the root zone. Time shall dictate his fate...
