Skunks prefer to stay on the ground. This means they are commonly found under porches, decks or in crawl spaces.  They will destroy parts of your property as they find their way in and leave droppings everywhere.  They can bite, scratch and spray if agitated.

Dead skunks on your property can also be an issue. We also provide removal services for dead animals and deodorization of the area they are found in. If left alone the problem will get worse. More damages will follow as the remains will attract other animals and insects. Keep your family and home healthy by getting rid of them immediately. We are ready to help.
