Ah lovely story about the Armadillos. Good analogy too. We had moles in our garden in the Spring – just on our newly seeded lawn. Luckily my OH is the gardener not me!
Since, like Kelly, I’m in Florida I’ll mention that armadillos only arrived here recently from the West although once there were prehistoric giant ones here. But I wanted to add that armadillos are devastating to the sea turtle nests along the Gulf Coast (I don’t know about the Atlantic side). An unusual fact about our 9-banded species is that they are always born as identical quadruplets.
Yes, Jay. The migrated here from Texas & from what I hear they are gradually moving north! Once I read they will be in DC area by 2020? Ack? yes, we read about the quadruplet thing too – I think we tried to become experts in their behavior so we could find a way to become un-haunted!
Yes, that’s right. And they actually injest some of the soil too. Which is a precious commodity in sandy Florida. 😛 Did you have a long term problem or was it a hit and run for you?
Congratulations on getting your first newsletter out. I know how hard it is, on a smaller scale than rawarrior.com, to link up, test and make everything compatible with all different types of operating systems and browsers. Good job Kelly.

Wish I could do it again some day – the gardening and the armadillo chasing both! Doncha love natures little friends? 😉

The armadillos eat the grubs in the lawns. You should have seen all the damage they did to at least 4 yards including mine!
