Guest Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Nothing brings out coons and skunks like folks having a good time, so in a effort to help surely we could get a few of us together to drink beer, cook hot dogs over a fire and roast marshmellows, toss some fried chicken bones around. Of course the property owner would have to provide all the groceries since its "his" skunk/coon. Hey we are all here to help. I used to have a mixed breed mutt of a dog that absolutely hated skunks, I swear he would go out hunting them, would take the spray and kill the skunk. Handy to have to thin out the skunk population, but sure was stinky to hve around the yard as sometimes he liked to drag them back to chew on. No skunk yet. My neighbors cousin has been camping out by the creek since sunday, maybe I will set a trap down there. Last night I chased a coon with my 12ga & spot light. Hes been stealing corn out of the deer feeder, so I gotta relocate the trap.
Guest Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 I am hoping that there is actually a whole family of skunks so that this thread will continue until the internet ends. Lol Jerry Rapp, I certainly hope we dont get a whole family of skunks, but you never know at my place.

MOPanfisher Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 You never know when you get roused awaked by your dog and go outside just what you might end up chasing or doing. Might find yourself in a fight with a possum, while naked. Just sayin. Or happily watering a spot in the grass when a big white horse walks by on the other side of the fence, only a surprise when you don't own a big white horse, in the moonlight they become monsters in your mind.

Members Elroy Posted July 7, 2016 Members Posted July 7, 2016 I used to have a lot of skunks in my backyard. I finally had to call in a1 checkmate http://removethewild.com/ to remove them from my backyard. They are burrowing animals and tend to dig your grass and make a mess. There are some easy ways to get rid of skunk. Skunks hate light. Adding a lot of light to your backyard can keep them away. Decks and under the houses are some of the most common places where you can find skunk nests. Make sure that you don’t leave any of the open places opened for long and seal them as soon as you can. Solid metal flash wire and a quarter inch screening are some of the effective ways to seal the holes. Keep your yard clean all the time. Get rid of pet food and garbage bags as they tend to attract not only skunks but other wildlifes as well. Placing motion activated sprinklers is also a good idea to get rid of skunks.
