Inspection & Assessment
We inspect your property to assess the situation and locate skunk activity around likely entry points and den areas. Skunks are poor climbers so special techniques may be required to help them out of tight spaces. We evaluate potential entry points such as crawl spaces or rock piles to prevent re-entry. If you suspect a den entrance, a light cover of dirt or newspaper can help confirm whether it is active. Professional wildlife control is recommended when skunks are inside structures or young may be present.
Humane Animal Removal
Using safe and humane eviction methods our technicians will carefully remove the skunk from your property. We take baby skunk removal very seriously and prioritize their well-being. That means planning around mother skunks and baby skunks, since humane removal is especially timing-sensitive when a litter is present. In general, do not evict skunks between April and September if they have dependent young, because the goal is to remove the entire family without leaving any trapped inside.

Skunk Removal and Property Damage
Skunks can cause damage to property and structures so removal is essential to prevent further problems. These animals will dig under foundations, tear up lawns with small holes about 1 to 3 inches deep while foraging, and create nests in attics, crawlspaces and other hard to reach areas. Small cone shaped holes or fresh digging in spring can point to active den sites or feeding activity. They may create hundreds of holes overnight and can uproot plants in garden beds. Repairing this type of yard damage can cost roughly $500 to $2000 annually. Removing skunks fast is crucial to prevent extensive property damage and health hazards. Our specialized services will address skunk infestations in all areas of your property so these unwanted guests will be evicted safely and effectively.
Skunk Removal Safety Precautions
Safety first when dealing with skunk removal as these animals can carry diseases and parasites that can harm humans and pets. Skunk spray can travel up to 20 feet, so getting too close is risky. One of the most serious diseases is rabies virus which skunks can carry. Anyone bitten or scratched should seek medical care promptly because a rabies vaccine may be needed. Sensory deterrents such as bright lights and sound can make a skunk den uncomfortable for skunks and encourage them to leave. If you need to remove skunk spray from surfaces or pets, bleach fur can be used but do it in a well ventilated area and avoid skin and eye contact. Skunk droppings are usually tube-shaped and about 2 inches long, often found near fence lines or den entrances. Skunks digging for grubs can leave 1-3 inch deep holes along with tracks showing five toes and claw marks in soft soil around disturbed areas. By following these safety measures you can protect yourself and your loved ones while dealing with skunk problems.
