Trapping Setup
The initial service call to inspect the property, locate dens, and set specialized enclosed traps that prevent spraying.
Exclusion (Trenching)
The most significant cost is often installing an L-shaped wire barrier (trenching) around decks or sheds to prevent future burrowing.
Odor Removal
If a skunk has sprayed under your home, professional deodorization treatments may be required to neutralize the smell.
Number of Animals
Costs may increase if you have a mother with a litter of kits, requiring multiple traps and trips.
Damage Repair
Repairing torn lattice, damaged vents, or foundation access points adds to the total project cost.
Emergency Service
Immediate response for skunks trapped in window wells or inside the home carries an emergency fee.
Why DIY Skunk Removal is Risky
- â ī¸ The Spray: One mistake can lead to you, your pets, or your home being sprayed. The odor is incredibly difficult to remove and can linger for months.
- â ī¸ Rabies Risk: Skunks are primary carriers of rabies. Handling cages or getting close puts you at risk of bites.
- â ī¸ Trap Shy: Improper trapping attempts can educate the skunk, making it much harder to catch later.
