Cats may transmit many diseases. But I wouldn't kill cats in my yard for that reason. My dog keeps them alive. I wouldn't kill not even a rat (they transmit black death) until it is a problem or a huge infestation.

I readed an article that said american people is afraid of many things, roddents, diseases, end of the world, tornados, neighbours, southamericans, muslims... always alarmed and sleeping with a gun under the pillow.

Reading this thread I believe that it can be true.

well, i "readed" an article that europeans think they know everything about what americans do "wrong" and how they should be doing it... always alarmed about how americans behave.

reading your post, i believe that it can be true.

yeah... your little story you read was full of shit... there are huge segments of every population in the world with those types of fears and others.... what's your point? that you read a biased article? good for you.

i read a story once that said people from the Basque Country are thought of as criminals, and another that said they wear bright coloured, gaudy clothing... should i believe them?

with all respect Jevo... you know nothing of life here, and armadillos are vermin. i leave them alone when i see them in the wild.. but on my property they cause damage (and that's not a "paranoia" or a fear of any type, it is a documented fact), and my only option, as has been covered 2 or 3 times in this thread, is to kill them. i'm sorry you don't like it, but it is the reality i have to deal with... trying to reduce it to some stereotypical, irrational response shows ignorance on your part, and is passive-aggressive behavior.

until you come and buy a house near mine and live here for a year, your opinion is hot air... spouted to make yourself feel superior and to seem to be of some more lofty moral character than me. get over it... it reeks of cheese.

So much fuss over someone killing a rodent. A rotten filthy disgusting animal.

Some of you dudes need to chill - it's not like he killed a puppy or a baby seal, and then smeared the blood of the fallen animal all over his face like a barbarian.

EDIT: I would have shot the fucker too.

Yeah, probably I'm an ignorant cause I never lived there. Believe me that I would shoot an armadillo if it caused damage to my yard or family, but first I would try to find any other solution.

Yes, we are. Very criminals and terrorists. We are used hear that from the extreme right wing of Spain, it is not even offensive.

and another that said they wear bright coloured, gaudy clothing... should i believe them?

What?? That is offensive!

it reeks of cheese.

I love cheese.

well, as i covered already in my other posts in this thread, i did try... every one i called said that, because of where i live, i should just stick a gas canister into their burrow after opening the valve, thus blocking their escape and suffocating them, or shoot them. i found the shooting option to be more humane in my opinion.

It's funny how the title of the thread ended up refering to what the thread would derail into, rather then the op.

America - FUCK YEAH!

edit: not actually the video I thought it was. I remember seeing a very similar video on PBS a year or so back about the dust bowl. Basically they would round up thousands of jackrabbits and everyone in the town would club them to death.

Hey,

Sorry if someone has already put it there because I was to lazy to read 7 pages straight but apparently there are solutions to scare those little things.

If this is true, it would save you some sleep time since you wouldn't have to run after them all night long and animal rights protectors would let you life peacefully !

Hope it will help you.

Since the choice in this case is between shooting one armadillo every few months and maintaining a chemical treatment system far more regularly (to deal with one armadillo every few months!) so that your neighbors can deal with the problem, I hope you understand why not everyone jumps on that solution.

lol.. yeah, i might be.. Greg and Liam won't be pleased with me at all, i'm sure.... but i feed strays, take injured animals i find to the vet hospital and pay the bill out of my own pocket (nearly $2K worth last year) for animals that weren't even mine, and have volunteered at the SPCA... so i have some karma points built up,
