Skunk Removal in Denver

Skunks are extremely strong diggers and often choose to den under stoops, patios, porches or decks.  No matter why the skunk has chosen to den under your house, the need to get it out and keep it out is immediate.  Beyond the smell permeating just about everything, many Skunks carry rabies, as well as ticks and fleas that could transfer to pets and potentially humans.  Skunk smell can permeate into homes and ruin not only clothing items, but your desire to inhabit the area.  Skunks can even break/dig through foundations and make their den between basement walls and ceilings. Blue Tick Pest & Wildlife Control Specialists are you specialists in skunk removal in Denver, we have a number of options to help get the critters out, and keep the critter out for good.

Understanding Skunks: Biology, Behavior, and Risks

Skunks are nocturnal animals commonly found throughout Colorado, including Denver. They are omnivores, feeding on insects, grubs, fruits, and small animals. While generally shy and avoiding confrontation, skunks will spray their potent, sulfurous liquid when they feel threatened, creating a foul odor and potential health risks.

Dangers Posed by Skunks

• Skunk Spray: The primary concern is the highly unpleasant and long-lasting odor from their spray. This can irritate eyes, skin, and respiratory systems, requiring professional cleaning and potentially medical attention.
• Disease Transmission: Skunks can carry and transmit diseases like rabies, distemper, and leptospirosis, posing a risk to humans and pets.
• Property Damage: Skunks can burrow under structures, damaging foundations and landscaping while searching for food or shelter.

Preventing Skunk Problems Around Your Denver Property

Taking proactive measures can significantly reduce the risk of attracting skunks in the first place:

• Eliminate Attractants: Securely store trash cans with lids, remove pet food bowls and droppings promptly, and minimize outdoor food sources like fallen fruits or birdseed.
• Seal Potential Entry Points: Inspect your foundation, crawl space, and shed for cracks, gaps, or holes, and seal them with appropriate materials.
• Trim Overhanging Branches: Skunks can use tree branches to access your roof. Trim branches away from your house to limit their access points.
• Consider Lighting: Skunks prefer dark areas. Install motion-sensor lights around your property to deter them.
