Effing armadillos

[task0778]

I got big holes all over my lawn from armadillos looking for grubs and slugs. Which is sorta good cuz the Gs and Ss will eat my garden plants. But is there any way to kinda discourage them from digging up my lawn that doesn't cost a lotta money? Or maybe try to get rid of the grubs and slugs, no food means no armadillos, right? Or maybe a 2-pronged attack, get rid of both.

Had a problem with Armies, called a specialist who came with containment units and soon no more Armies,

I had a pretty nasty infestation of grubs last year. I hit it with a commercial grub killer last year and I put down another application this week. We'll see if it is effective. We don't have armadillos here, but gophers, moles and voles that I've had to deal with in the past. The only effective solution to those was trapping them.
