Product Description
Say Goodbye to Dug-Up Yards, One Spray at a Time
Picture this: you wake up to a lawn pockmarked with holes, your carefully planted tulips tossed aside. Your first thought? “Not again.” That was me, until I found Dillo Dun. This all-natural armadillo repellent uses ricinus oil (basically castor oil) mixed into a water-based formula. You spray a 12-inch border around the problem area, and voila, armadillos are disoriented by the masked grub scent and choose softer targets.
What makes Dillo Dun effective is its science-backed simplicity. Ricinus oil disrupts the scent trail armadillos follow to grub worms beneath the soil. It doesn’t harm your garden, it protects it. I remember a neighbor whose prized rose patch was ruined; two applications later, her roses were flourishing, and no new holes appeared.
Beyond the blend itself, this product wins hearts because it’s hassle-free. No trenching, no cages, no toxins; just a trigger-spray bottle and some “spray and wait.” Plus, knowing it’s family- and pet-safe makes it feel like peace poured with every spray.

How to Use / Installation Guide
- Shake well before use: This is an oil‑in‑water emulsion; give it a good shake to mix evenly.
- Prime the sprayer: Remove the shipping cap, attach the trigger sprayer firmly (check the instructions on the bag), then pump until liquid emerges.
- Spray your perimeter: Walk around areas you want to protect lawns, flower beds, vegetable gardens; and spray a continuous 12-inch‑wide band of Dillo Dun. A gallon covers up to 2,000 sq ft.
- Allow it to dry: Let the spray settle for at least 1–2 hours before rain or watering. It bonds with the soil to mask grub scents.
Reapply as needed
- After heavy rain or irrigation: the rain‑guard formula can resist light watering, but persistent soaking may dilute it.
- Whenever fresh holes appear: that means armadillos are back.
- Every 2–4 weeks during peak digging season, or as your yard demands.
Real Tip from a Gardeners
- Shake well every use: It’s an emulsion; vital for correct dispersion.
- Start early: Begin treatment around spring when armadillo activity increases.
- Spray early in the evening so the scent settles overnight; right when armadillos are most active.
- Persistent rain? Keep reapplying; dillo behavior will return if barrier is lost.
- Combine solutions: If digging continues, reduce grub populations and consider physical barriers like hardware cloth.
- Walk your yard at dusk or dawn after applying. Even a gentle breeze helps distribute the scent barrier more evenly before the spray dries.
- Some nozzle issues can be resolved by flushing with warm water or swapping in another spray head.
Troubleshooting Common Concerns
Problem | What It Might Mean | Your Solution |
---|---|---|
Armadillos continue digging | Barrier may have worn off (rain, mowing, foot traffic) | Re‑spray perimeter; focus on their target zones |
Sprayer clogged or faulty | Trigger nozzle may misfire | Dilute slightly with water, flush nozzle, or decant into another clean sprayer |
Increased digging | Armadillos undeterred, may need stronger barrier | Respray more frequently, patrol after rain |
Maintenance & Storage
Store in a cool, dry place (avoid extreme temperatures). Shake before each use. If the trigger wears out, transfer the liquid to another spray bottle; it still works just as well.
FAQs
Q1: Will Dillo Dun hurt my plants, flowers, or grass?
Not at all! It’s designed to be plant-safe. A Chewy user asked, “Will this product harm grass?” The reply: “This repellent is harmless to plants and animals when used as directed.” Just spray around; don’t soak your plants directly.
Q2: What if it rains right after I spray?
It’s built with a rain‑guard formula that handles light rain. But after a heavy downpour, you’ll want to reapply to maintain the protective barrier.
Q3: How often should I reapply during the summer?
A good rule of thumb: every 2–4 weeks during peak digging months, or right after rain. Some homeowners report needing applications every 3 weeks for ideal protection.
Q4: Can I use a different sprayer if the trigger breaks?
Absolutely. Several users have transferred the liquid into garden sprayers without any change in effectiveness. It’s the ricinus oil that does the work, not the sprayer.
Q5: Does it work on other burrowing critters like moles or gophers?
Yes, your earthy barrier isn’t armadillo‑specific. Reviews note it also helps deter other creatures that respond to scent masking, like moles and gophers.
Q6: Is it safe around pets and kids?
Totally. Made from natural oils, it’s non-toxic and safe when used as directed, on lawns, around beds, and within outdoor living spaces.
