Skunks May Spray You or Your Pets
Skunks expel that awful odor as a defense mechanism against predators when they feel intimidated. They can spray up to 15 feet! This odor is extremely hard to get rid of, and honestly, most removal remedies just do not work. As others will tell you, skunk odor can take an exceptionally long time to get rid of.
If you get spray in your eyes, you will experience a bad burning sensation and often temporary blindness. Also, the smell is extremely hard to remove.
Skunk Damage
Skunks living in a crawlspace on your property will defecate, urinate and contaminate the insulation and soil. These droppings will go away in the clean-up process to prevent diseases and parasites.
