Tips to avoid having skunks “move in” on your property
If you have out buildings, garages, sheds these are the most likely places a skunk may take up residence in and around your yard. Skunks are excellent diggers and will gladly carve out of place under your garden shed to live and raise their young. Unfortunately there isn’t a lot you can do to stop them, but you could try being a noisy neighbour and force them to move on to somewhere else.
Skunk detterrants
Try leaving a radio on, install bright lights, and hang ammonia soaked rags in and around where you suspect them to be living. The hope is that they will move out and find a quieter, darker, more private place to live.
Skunks are generally harmless, nocturnal, and enjoy eating insects, grubs, berries, nuts, and small rodents. If you’re trying to get rid of a skunk on your property do not leave pet food outside, remove bird and squirrel feeders, have your lawn professionally sprayed for grubs and insects, and be responsible with your trash cans and compost pile.
Do not try trapping skunks yourself
If this does not work, do not try to trap the mother skunk, especially during the spring and early summer when she has babies in her den. You do not want to orphan or abandon the young under any circumstances. This is why it is best to seek out the help of professional skunk removal experts like our technicians
