Our Success In Trapping​ Skunks

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 walking through your yard, be sure to keep your distance and remove your pets from a potential problematic encounter, and Call Us immediately! 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. If you or your pet get sprayed - Immediately make a paste from: 1 quart of 3% hydrogen peroxide ¼ cup of baking soda 1–2 teaspoons of liquid dish soap Wash the affected area, keeping the solution away from your mouth, nose and eyes. This will dramatically reduce the odor, although, you may still hate skunks for a good long time after! Call Us Today! (866) 977-4607

What to Do After a Trapping Program​

The animals have been trapped and removed, but you're worried about the problem coming back in the future. Now what? Oftentimes it is beneficial to consider a permanent exclusion barrier following a successful trapping program to prevent the animals from coming back. Most animal issues stem from vulnerabilities on the exterior of a home or building that animals take advantage of to take up residence. Trapping and removal is a crucial first step, but most problems will not be permanently solved without installing an exclusion barrier to repair any vulnerabilities and prevent new animal tenants from moving in.
