Tampa Bay’s Growing Armadillo Problem

Florida’s warm, humid climate and sandy soils make Tampa Bay a hotspot for armadillo activity. These digging animals are notorious for tearing up lawns, destroying landscaping, and burrowing under driveways, patios, and home foundations. Their burrows can weaken structures, while their constant digging attracts other pests and creates tripping hazards in yards. Being proactive in exterminating armadillos is key to preventing them from causing major issues on your property.

How Tampa Bay’s Environment Fuels Armadillo Issues

Sandy Soils & Yards

Armadillos prefer loose soil for digging and burrowing, making Tampa Bay’s residential yards prime targets.

Warm Climate

Year-round warmth allows armadillos to stay active in every season, unlike colder regions where activity fluctuates throughout the year.

Dense Landscaping

Mature trees, mulch beds, and gardens provide food sources like grubs and insects that armadillos seek out.

Suburban Growth

As neighborhoods expand, armadillos adapt by nesting under decks, sheds, and foundations, moving closer to people.

Water Sources

Areas near ponds, lakes, and canals attract armadillos looking for soft soil and insects to feed on.

Tampa Neighborhood-Specific Armadillo Issues

Lawns and landscaped yards are frequent targets for digging.

Ybor City

Older homes and soft soils near historic structures often face burrow damage.

Davis Islands

Waterfront access and sandy soil create perfect digging spots.

Seminole Heights

Tree-shaded neighborhoods attract grubs, a favorite food source for armadillos.

Hyde Park

Aging infrastructure and landscaped properties draw digging activity.

Downtown Tampa

Parks, green spaces, and nearby waterways make this a hotspot for armadillo sightings.

Signs You Have an Armadillo Problem in Tampa Bay

Armadillo problems often start out quitely but quickly escalate to structural risks if left unchecked. Look for:

Large Holes or Burrows

Armadillos dig deep tunnels that can weaken the ground around your home and cause structural concerns if left untreated.

Yard or Landscaping Damage

Their constant digging leaves behind torn-up lawns, scattered mulch, and damaged landscaping features.

Soil Piles From Active Digging Tunnels

Fresh mounds of soil are a common sign of armadillo activity, often appearing overnight in yards or gardens.

Weak Spots in Concrete or Pavers

Burrows beneath driveways, walkways, and patios can create dangerous soft spots or cracks in hard surfaces.

Nocturnal Activity in Quiet Yards

Armadillos are most active after dark, leaving behind damage by morning that can quickly worsen if not addressed.

If you notice these signs, professional armadillo pest control in Tampa Bay is essential to stop damage and protect your property.

Health & Property Risks of Armadillo Infestations

Health Risks

  • Known carriers of leprosy bacteria (though rare, transmission is possible).
  • Can spread fleas and ticks into your yard, affecting pets.

Property Risks

  • Burrows under foundations and patios can cause cracking and structural instability.
  • Lawn and landscaping destruction lowers property value.
  • Tunnels can undermine driveways, walkways, and decks.

  • Phil Hess

    Steve, did an excellent job getting rid of the squirrels in my attic. He installed a one way valve for the squirrels to exit and they couldn't get back in. They were gone in less than a week. He also patched the hole and disinfected the attic when he was done. Job well done. Would highly recommend Pro Wildlife Removal!!
  • Lindsey Llovet

    Steve was absolutely fantastic! When two rats found their way into our attic, he responded promptly and efficiently. He not only removed them but also secured the area to prevent any future intrusions. On top of that, he thoroughly cleaned up afterward. Thank you so much for your exceptional service!
  • Derek Llovet

    Can't recommend this place enough- Steve is a true champion. We had a problem with critters, and this company made sure to not only take care of the problem, but to also make sure it didn't happen again. It was a quick and easy process, communication was great- in this situation, I couldn't ask for a better service, because I got top notch service from this company. If you're having problems with wildlife- call Pro Wildlife removal. Do yourself a favor.
  • Tazdeen Rashid

    Steve was a great pleasure to work with. He did an honest work on our house getting rid of rats and squirrels in our attic. Sealed up all the possible entrances and lifetime guarantee on his work on the house as long as we live in the house. Highly recommend him and the company.

    Highly recommend! Had an issue at work with opossum removal, pro wildlife removal rapidly responded. Steve was professional, kind and efficient! He went above and beyond to ensure we all felt safe so we could continue on to have a great day. As an employer who works with many vendors for various things, I can honestly say that his effort, kindness and dedication were clear. Truly one of a kind.
  • Scarlett M

    I would highly recommend this company!!! The technician (Nelson Burgess) came out within an hour to remove a deceased opossum. It was a mama and he looked in the pouch and rescued the only surviving baby. So thankful for the quick service and the compassion to look for any surviving babies. I'm so thankful I chose this company.
