We trap and relocate skunks from decks, porches, and yards, then treat spray-affected areas and close off den sites.
Signs you have a skunk problem
Wildlife problems rarely fix themselves, and they often get more costly to deal with the longer they continue. If you notice any of the signs below, it is worth having your property looked at early.
- A strong, lingering musky odor around the house, yard or crawl space.
- Holes dug in the lawn where skunks have been searching for grubs.
- A den opening under a deck, porch, shed or foundation.
- Tracks and droppings near sheds, garages and trash areas.
- Pets that come home sprayed or keep fixating on one spot.
How we remove skunks
- Inspection: we find the den and identify how the skunk is entering, staying clear of the animal.
- Humane removal: we remove skunks with humane methods and one-way exclusion devices, working to avoid spraying.
- Sealing and repairs: we close access under decks, porches and sheds, with odor and dead-animal cleanup where it applies.
- Follow-up: we check that no skunks have returned and the sealed areas are holding.
Our process follows the same careful, humane approach on every job and is adjusted to the animal and your property. We explain each step as we go, so you always know what is being done and why.

Frequently asked questions
Will the skunk spray when you remove it?
We work carefully to avoid it, but we cannot promise a skunk will not spray. Please keep pets and people away from the area.
Can you get rid of the smell?
Where it applies, odor cleanup is part of our work, and sealing the den prevents more of it.
Why are skunks digging up my lawn?
They often dig for grubs and insects. Removal and exclusion stop the denning, and we can point out what draws them in.
How much does wildlife removal cost?
Pricing varies quite a bit with the animal, the structure and the work needed. It is easiest to explain by phone, so call (231) 903-7255 for a free quote.
