Skunk Damage
Skunks living in a crawlspace on your property will defecate, urinate and contaminate the insulation and soil. These droppings should be removed in the clean-up process to prevent diseases and parasites.
These creatures also love to tear duct lines and use insulation in their dens as they often burrow under woodpiles and under piles of leaves. Additionally, skunks can ravage your garden and eat all vegetables.
In the Murfreesboro area, skunks often take up residence under sheds and in hot tubs since sheds are often elevated off the ground. This ends up being a perfect place for raising a family. If there is an obvious shelter to have and raise babies, a skunk will seek it!

After skunks are away from your property, a wildlife specialist will fill the holes with cement to ensure that no other skunks in your area will utilize these open dens.
