You have a skunk then get rid of it but how?

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • fruits
  • skunk in a house lol
  1. Step 1

    Your best bet to get rid of a skunk is to let it leave on its own. But most people need to get home immediately. Just remember DO NOT SCARE IT.

  2. Step 2

    You need to lore it out of the house using fruits or vegetables.

  3. Step 3

    It sounds obvious but i can not think of a better way except for throwing a sleep bomb or a really bad stink bomb or just shoot it(do not shot it that is cruel)
    Any way, put the fruits in a line and hopefully it will follow the line

  4. Step 4

    Make it far enough for the next step. At the end of the line leave a lot of food to make it stay there for a while.

  5. Step 5

    With out it SEEING YOU OR HEARING YOU get inside your home and patch any holes that it used to get inside the house.
    GOOD LUCK
    also I have no idea where to categorize this.

  6. Step 6

    If all else fails call animal control.

Tips & Warnings
  • If you get sprayed, tomato juice works well
  • Do not alarm it
  • Do not get sprayed
  • Do not get sprayed in the eye or you will have the stink eye lol(I know not funny)

on 6/20/2009 Just be quiet and careful, and you should be fine. The skunk will usually give you a slight warning first. He will stop and raise his tail slightly. I have chased them out of my garage lots of times and also trapped them, and have never been sprayed
