I'll gather them up at daybreak. 3 armadillo's and 1 opossum between 3:30 and 4:30 this morning. After a rain. 22 rifle and a flashlight you can put a hurting on them. Plan on getting into trapping but for now this is pretty effective. Armadillo's are egg suckers to! Not sure what happened to all the armadillo’s around here but 20 years ago they were everywhere and we killed a many late evening in the hayfields with a 22! Don’t see that many of em anymore

sj22 you had a good little run, so congratulations  I have less than a week left at work then I'll be after them again. I am going to set 50+ dp's and try my luck with 25 foot hold traps. I have never set a foot hold trap in my life, I feel like I have watched enough youtube videos to know how. We gonna set them an let them soak until we catch, rain mess the set up or time runs out.

I watched a pile of videos too when I started, setting part isn’t difficult once you do a few but getting them to step on the right spot is aggravating especially if you put a camera on it and see em so close but not close enough! Good luck, I wish I had the time to run em everyday but I have to hit em when I can
