Skunk problem?

[BIG IRON]

I seem to have a skunk holed up in my little shed out back. I am looking for suggestions on taking care of this prolem. I am thinking live trap outside the door + cat food + benadryl mixed in the cat food + .22. Any other ideas?

Man up and crawl in there and get him.
Sounds like you have a better plan than mine.

Moth balls?

I have heard the best place to shoot them is in the back and try to take out the spinal cord.... that way they can not spray you.... then a head shot to finish them off.

My .02 Good luck!

I think you can spray some fox pee around and keep them out of the area? I think that works on skunks anyway??

Fox urine works great. If you can find the hole they're in, put a pipe off your pickup tailpipe in the hole, cover it with dirt, and gas them. Let the truck run about 20 min. and then pull the pipe out and cover the hole with dirt. Gas chamber deluxe.

I like that idea!!

It works but it's a B**** to harvest them! Need a little knife and a magnifying glass..

But then don't you have a dead rotting skunk problem?

I would use the FOX URINE first and try to run them out and away before I GASSED THEM!! I like the gas chamber idea but then the dead smell and the skunk spray smell will last for MONTHS!!!!

Nothing worse than a skunk smell. Lasts for a long time. I like the spinal shot idea. I shot one in the head once and it still released its fragrant aroma. Cussed that skunk every time I went to the barn for about 3 months.

why benadryl...why not poison if the food is in the trap??..Oh and I still say you gas it

If it hasn't dug a den, it will move on in a day or three, unless your some how feed-n it (dog's food?). But if it dug a den, I'd be expect-n kits before long . If you see it out running around in the day time, shoot it immediatly. It prob is rabbid. They will occasionally hang around a den during daylight. But shouldn't be out running around.

BTW, is this a P&Y skunk ?

When you set the live trap tie on a 25' rope, then just drag him over to the neighbors pool.
