Skunks are not one of the most common animals to come across in a residential area, but it does happen. Especially in new subdivisions you might see one running around. Avoiding them is the surest way of not being sprayed. Unfortunately this is not always a realistic way to operate. They have a habit of making their homes under decks, the base of sheds, and even house foundations if possible. This places you in close proximity to these creatures, which makes it difficult to avoid, even despite them being nocturnal.
While their size and markings make them appear cute and even harmless, do not let this trick you. Their spray is unpleasant to have to deal with, and will hurt if it gets into your eyes. The scent will linger and only through excessive washing and time will it fade. Children and domestic animals are perhaps the most at risk simply because they do not know the hazards that come with provoking and scaring skunks.
What to Do
There are a couple of complications that come with the trapping of a pesky skunk. Skunks, along with a number of other animals are protected by law in a number of regions throughout Ontario. This means that getting rid of them can be much more difficult than originally assumed. They must be humanely captured and then transported to another location and released. There are a number of regulations that must be followed throughout the whole process, so turning to a professional who is experienced in these matters is your best bet. It also means that you will not have to handle an animal that could be hazardous to your overall wellbeing.
