    Are you seeing a lot of skunks lately?

    They are everywhere all of a sudden - must be mating season. I’m seeing them a lot on cameras and my buddy across the road said he’s trapped 5 around his camp house in the last two weeks. Also saw several flat ones on the road coming back to town this morning

    It is mating season. A couple years ago I trappedv11 in my yard in just a couple weeks.

        On the road dead.

        A lot of them!

        Some on the cell game but more on the roads.

          Bingo.

          I used to see them dead on the road constantly this time of year before I moved into the office from the field. Give it another 6 months and you’ll probably notice it again.

            yep twice a year, hate them. Horrible to get them in coyote traps but now I just shoot them and get them out and just stink for awhile, impossible to not get it on you. Leave rubber boots outside and goes away, probably good for hiding my scent even though always wear rubber gloves and boots when setting.

                        What’s a good bait to put in a trap?

                          Saw one last night in the front yard. I sure wish they would not spray when you shoot them. If I trap one it gets left until it’s dead, then it does not stink near as bad.

                              Dry cat food has worked for me. Magnetic mechanics cup on the trip pan.
