HELP - Skunk in garage

[Texbow94]

A skunk has decided to take up residence in my junk corner of the garage. I've tried to lure it out with sardines, but after eating them, it just goes back to its little corner in the garge. I tried waiting in the car outside for it to come out the last 2 nights, but it has waiting me out so far. Thank the Lord it has not sprayed yet, and I'd like to keep it that way.

What about driving into the garage and lowering the door with the car running? Leave door lifted slightly so he can run out?

Put a radio in the garage and turn it on full blast... Worked for us with one in the house..

This seems simple enough - radio on a station - if so what kind of music?, or just on static?

Play some Lady gaga , that will run him out and he will never be back

You might not believe me, but this will work. Make a 6-8ft seringe pole and fill the seringe with acetone/fingernail polish remover (10-12cc). Slowly approach the skunk with a blanket and gently cover him. This will keep him calm. Inject the acetone behind the sholder in the so you get it injected behind the rib cage and into the vitals. The skunk will die in seconds and will not spray. I've done this a few times with trapped skunks and have not gotten sprayed.

Try the radio first

This might work if I could get to it. One of the problems is he is stuck in the corner of the garage with all my junk stacked around it. The only way to get back there is move everything out, which I'm afaid will give it a chance to spray, since it will be cornered. You can call me a chicken all you want, but I DO NOT want that smell in my garage for the next 10 years.

Lady Gaga comment is a "classic"! :-)

I like the loud music Idea...

I've caught them with the live traps walked up to it slowly with a sheet in front of me then draped the sheet over the trap. Took the trap outside and opended the front with the claw end of a hammer. (The big eastwingss not some mickey mouse hammer)The skunk should walk out and not spray.

Set up a trail camera in the garage and figure out his routine. He has to come out at some point.
