Before 20 minutes had been played, they had gone up in a 3-0 lead.
The first came through Felix Pherson on the return after a corner, and then 34-year-old Edlund filled in with two straight.
It woke up the guests who reduced twice over.
First Ilya Gratjev and then Adam Blomster stood for an impressive performance.
Villas 4-2 still came just minutes later when Martin Andreasson put in a return after an impressive save by goalkeeper Anders Svensson.
At the beginning of the second half, the next jerk came.
Edlund scored almost immediately and seven minutes later Tim Persson and Felix Pherson had led their team in a 7-2 lead.
Then Vänersborg's race really began.
When the match was over, it was 13-3 on the scoreboard and Edlund had scored three more goals.
The final goal was a rock-hard shot that put an end to the crush.
Villa Lidköping has still not lost this season, while Vänersborg is on six points after five games played.
