Our Skunk Removal Process
Identification
Identification
First and foremost, the entry point has to be identified so we can determine the best course of action to take. Skunks can be found under decks, sheds, or porches. They have incredible digging abilities over climbing abilities, so you don't have to worry too much about them getting into your attic or chimney. If we find excavated areas or abandoned holes that might serve as a skunk den, we will fill in them with loose dirt and keep an eye on what happens over the next few days. If the hole is reopened and the dirt is gone, it is very likely that you have a skunk. In addition to identifying problem areas, our experienced wildlife removal technicians will also point out areas that are likely to be inhabited by skunks so you can make an informed decision to prevent future issues.
Removal
Now it's time to remove the skunk from your property. We'll prod the mama skunk away and yes, we'll humanely handle any babies that are in the den so we can relocate mama and babies together. If you suspect a skunk has gone under your deck, porch, etc., and has not come out and you notice a foul odour, our team can also conduct dead wildlife removal services. Ultimately, we will solve all your skunk removal inquiries and meet all your wildlife needs.
Clearing and Cleaning
Regardless of the animal you've had trouble within and around your property, our pest control experts will thoroughly clean up after their removal so no traces of their den/nest is left behind and so you can rest assured knowing no health risks will endanger you or your family. Sanitizing and deodorizing the space is very important when it comes to animal and pest control.
Prevention
As we mentioned before, skunks are known for being relentless, therefore, sometimes after they're removed and relocated from your home, they may still return. That being said, it's imperative to take measures that will prevent a future skunk intrusion. After removal, our team will seal any entry points and bury heavy-gauge security screens to protect potential openings. Additionally, we will also deter other skunks from entering your property by deodorizing the surrounding areas and ensuring your home is thoroughly protected from unwanted guests with the necessary measures.
