Skunk under the back porch... now what? (1 Viewer)

[Angry Beavers]

All responses appreciated... Schtick included.

Found the critter when putting the grill cover on just a little bit ago. Already have a couple of ideas but I figure the FFA ought to have some great ideas. Fire away!!

Dump a bucket of ice water on it and challenge three Facebook friends to do the same.

Find a stray black cat, paint a white stripe down its back and throw it under the porch.

 

[KingPrawn]

Dump a bucket of white paint down a black female cat and yell "Le Skunk! Le skunk!"

Hrrmph

 

[KCitons]

Is that a euphemism?

 

[eoMMan]

Let it be?

 

[sports_fan]

invite it inside?

Don't take any chances, call an animal control business ASAP. My dog has been sprayed twice, once so bad her nose had different color spots.

Can you get the lawnmower under there?

 

[MC Gas Money]

This is why we need to lift the assault rifle ban

Get a beaver.

No. A woman will only make the situation worse.

Jerry Mathers is not a woman.......I think.

He said a beaver, not THE beaver.

Only 1?

I thought they had a rotation like Lassie

That's probably not a good place to hide your weed, imo.

Sounds like a country AND western song in the making.

Burn the house down. He'll leave

Is it like a wood deck? I'm just thinking how it got there.

Dems good eatin

Make sure you remove the scent sack under the tail as it might taint the meat.

Worked his way under the lattice. Looks like he may have dug a little so he could fit. Couldn't see much in the dark with an over head spotlight.

 

[Angry Beavers]

I am going to try mothballs to get it to leave or I'll have to call animal control. Luckily the dog was inside when I stumbled across it or that could have been ugly.

Definitely watch out for the taint.

My wife saw a family of 7 last spring in our yard--they burrowed under our shed. I put a wire trap by their exit point by the shed (didn't bait it at all) and caught 4 in about a month. The other ones left after that and I haven't seen them all summer. 22 in the head, ran for cover from spray, and an hour later disposed of body.

I had some possums living under my deck last year. I secured the lattice work around it and set bricks around the perimeter of it on an early fall night. I haven't had any problems since.

Had a skunk under shed this year.

I soaked a bunch of socks/rags in ammonia and tossed the under and around the shed. Skunks hate ammonia smell and will typically vacate the area.

Get an owl.
