SKUNKS

Most noticeably known for their smell, skunks are a big problem when they are mating and again when the young begin to emerge from their dens.
In the winter, female skunks will sometimes take up residence, in groups, under homes, decks or sheds. When a male is looking to mate and encounters an unreceptive female, she will spray, letting a homeowner know they have a skunk problem.

Around mid June, young skunks will begin to venture out of their den with their mother. At this age, the young skunks are capable of spraying. Like a child with a new toy squirt gun, juvenile skunks randomly spray as they learn to control their scent gland and associated muscles.
Other than some burrowing to get under a deck or shed, and their offensive odor, the only real damage skunks cause is digging up lawns as they search for grubs.

Call Nuisance Management for quick, odorless removal of skunks from your property.

We also provide shed, deck and other structure screening to keep skunks from coming back.
