When you Trapp an animal out of a den, are you just filing it back with dirt, or rock, copper mesh?

What kind of animal? Where located?

For small burrows like chippies dry sand flows like water. Under foundations concrete is a possibility.

What about groundhog holes under stumps?
Rip rap or smaller gravel?

I use a lot of Quickrete especilly for armadillos under the foundation. It is fairly cheap ...some times I buy the broken bags at Lowes for next to nothing.
