Humane Skunk Removal & Control
Skunks are known for their strong odor, but they can also cause property damage, dig up lawns, and carry diseases like rabies. At Soundview Wildlife Control, we provide safe, humane, and environmentally responsible skunk removal services throughout Connecticut. Our team specializes in effective trapping, exclusion, and odor prevention to keep your property safe.
Understanding Skunk Behavior
Skunks are nocturnal animals that often seek shelter under decks, sheds, and crawl spaces. While generally non-aggressive, they will spray when threatened, leaving a long-lasting and difficult-to-remove odor. Skunks are also known to:
- Dig holes while searching for grubs and insects.
- Enter crawl spaces or basements through gaps or vents.
- Carry parasites and diseases that can affect pets.
Signs You May Have a Skunk Problem
- Persistent musky odor near your property.
- Cone-shaped holes in lawns or gardens.
- Noises or scratching under decks or porches.
- Skunk sightings at night or around trash bins.
Dangers of a Skunk Infestation
Beyond the unpleasant odor, skunks can cause several problems:
Health concerns
from parasites and potential rabies.
Property Damage
from digging and denning.
Odor contamination
in crawl spaces or HVAC systems.
