Skunk Removal
Skunk removal and skunk control is a common service that Xceptional Wildlife Removal provides throughout Atlanta and the surrounding areas. There are two different types of skunks that can be seen throughout Georgia. Some of the services we offer are spotted skunk removal and striped skunk removal. The striped skunk is the skunk that is mostly found in the eastern part of the United States. Most all skunks are considered nocturnal animals meaning they travel mostly at night looking for food in yards and lawns to find their food source, which consists of beetles and other grubs that are usually found in the ground. The striped skunk has small ears, yet has excellent hearing. The striped skunk is usually found to be black in color with a white stripe down the center of its back starting at it’s for head. Skunks also have very bad eyesight although they are very quick to pick up any kind of sudden movement.
Our Xceptional Wildlife biologist are able to handle all types of Skunk situations throughout the Atlanta metro area. We specialize in Skunk Removal, Skunk Trapping, and complete Skunk Control solutions.
Skunk Damage:
The main problem with skunks is their need to dig under structures to find food. They have been known to dig under sheds, barns, porches, and decks. This can lead to a weakening of the structural integrity of your property. If the digging continues, it can lead to very expensive repairs needing to be done. These holes will vary in size and can be a small hole to a relatively large one. Once the skunk has been removed, it is recommended that cement is poured into the hole to deter any other nuisance wildlife from digging.
Skunk Trapping:
Skunk Trapping is the best method of removing these nuisance pests from your property. Trapping is the fastest, most effective method of preventing an Skunk from destroying your lawn. It is often a tricky process because once they are trapped, they will spray their musky scent because they feel threatened. Skunks primarily dig for their food, hence why they will not enter a baited cage trap freely. This is why trapping an Skunk should be handled by a professional. Our Wildlife Biologist of Xceptional Wildlife are experts at Skunk Trapping and have successfully provided these services throughout the Atlanta Metro area and surrounding cities.
