Skunk Trapping and Removal
Skunks aren't "mean" animals by nature, but like any wild animal, they will attempt to defend themselves against a perceived threat. New mother skunks are known to act aggressively to protect their young. Skunks are also known carriers of rabies. If a skunk is stumbling through your yard, be sure to keep a safe distance and remove your pets from a potentially dangerous encounter.
If a skunk raises it's tail in your direction, move away immediately! A skunk can spray its noxious, foul-smelling odor up to 16 feet with incredible accuracy. Their spray is an overwhelming liquid, often shot toward the eyes, causing extreme irritation and stinging and generally giving you a really bad day or two! It's so potent, that even bears are repelled by it! Baby Skunks may look adorable, but they're an even greater threat for spraying, because they can't always control when they spray.

Dead Skunk Removal
"TriState Wildlife's a great company that can take care of the gross stuff for you. They were fearless in the face of the worst smell I've ever experienced. A poor little skunk died inside our basement window well, after spraying repeatedly... TriState came out to remove the skunk and got rid of most of the awful smell using their bag of tricks. We were really grateful for their help!"

Westchester Skunk Removal
"When a little skunk fell down our window well, we panicked. The little guy was spraying and couldn't seem to climb out on his own. TriState came right over and risked a very smelling night to rescue it. We were really happy with the outcome. We'll be using TriState Wildlife again for any future wildlife issue."

- Dead Skunk Under Porch
"Thanks to TriState Wildlife, our skunks are gone for good! I thought that I'd fixed the problem when I blocked all of the holes under the porch, but then the smell came. When TriState Wildlife came, they didn't hesitate for a second, army crawling under the porch to get the dead skunk out. I had them go ahead with a proper seal up, so now I don't ever have to worry about a smell like that again. A+ work!"
