Question
Hello! My problem is so many rowdy/noisy and yes, smelly Skunks in my yard. How I can I send them elsewhere without the use of poisons? I refuse to use anything that will kill them or make them violently ill! Just want them out of our yard.They're so noisy they keep me up at night. :-( HELP! I've heard of electronic repellers...do they work? Thanks for your speedy reply!

Answer
Since you seem to have a family of skunks regularly visiting the yard at night, I'd almost assume that they live under your house. The first thing I would do is check for openings and check that all crawl ways to gain access under the house are covered. Skunks can readily find that warm spot where there is a gas pilot light. Are your garbage cans secured? Are they digging or eating unpicked fruit?
We carry a product called Critter Ridder that can be applied as a granule or spray. It can be applied to the periphery of your yard and where they are creating a nuisance. Applications will be best in those areas where the animals can walk in to gain access. They are not habitual climbers of fences or trees.
