help how do i get rid of skunks in my yard by my bird feeder
Answer:
I've not tried this but have had very positive feedback from others who have. Set a live trap for the animal and once trapped, slowly cover the trap with a blanket while talking softly to it. You must remember which end the gate is at because now that you have him, you'll have to pick up the whole thing and place it gently in the back of a pickup or trailer and drive him out to the country (not your brother-in-law's place). Once parked, keep talking softly while you gently place the blanket covered trap on the ground. This is where remembering where the gate is becomes important. Peel back the blanket far enough to open the gate and walk away. In seconds, your tenant will have vacated his enclosure and you can take the trap back home and wait for the next one to come by.
In the interests of retaining credibility and in fairness to all, I cannot recommend prices, people nor companies for various projects.
Remember, even if you don’t do your own work around the house have to hire someone, you put yourself at a great advantage when you can intelligently discuss a project with the various trades people.
