Skunk Removal
Seasonal Alert: High Activity
Skunks are very active during the breeding season in the spring and summer, and there is a good chance they will settle in your home or property. In addition, they are most active at night. This is also when the number of skunk sprays increases dramatically when they feel threatened, whether by children or pets. If you encounter a problem with skunks, please contact Capital Wildlife Control for immediate assistance. We are the wildlife control experts in the Ottawa-Gatineau region and skunk removal is our specialty.
Getting Rid of Skunks
What Can We Do For You?
The striped skunk is a mammal, which releases a strong smell in self-defense. Not only can this species wreak havoc on your senses, it can also cause serious damages to your house. Even if skunks are not aggressive animals they seem to know their smelling potential and are careful not to spray themselves when they perceive a threat. Skunk should be approached with caution because it is difficult to distinguish those infected by rabies from those what are not. It is preferable to always work with professionals for skunk removal when faced with skunk infestations.
