Skunks in Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania is home to a wide variety of wildlife, with one animal having a particularly foul reputation: the skunk. Skunks are easily recognized by their classic white stripe over black fur, as well as their unmistakable, strong-smelling musk. This nocturnal animal is rarely seen during daytime hours, but they make their presence known when they spray their musk in defense or to mark territory.

Skunk control may be needed when skunks choose to take up residence close to our homes or offices. Skunks can be attracted by a food source, such as bird feeders, or may randomly den under a shed or deck. They will dig shallow burrows under structures to create homes and raise their young. This can become a problem when the strong odor of skunk musk infiltrates a home or when a pet is sprayed. Once a problem is realized, what can be done?

Skunk Control Solutions

Skunk trapping is a quick and effective way to remove invading animals and resolve a wildlife conflict. Humane traps are typically set close to the den site and are checked daily. When handled properly, a trapped skunk will rarely spray and can be removed without much or any odor at all.

Exclusion is a more long-term approach to a skunk problem and can prevent recurring issues in the future. Blocking off openings under sheds, porches, and decks is the most common form of skunk exclusion and, if completed properly, will block wildlife entry for years.

Other common situations we encounter involving skunks include when a skunk falls into a swimming pool or window well and cannot climb out. Sometimes a homeowner will set a trap intending to catch another animal and end up catching a skunk. We have seen and handled all types of wildlife situations in PA and will find a humane solution to any wildlife conflict.

Raccoon Removal

Pennsylvania has an abundant population of raccoons that thrive in our urban and suburban communities. Raccoons are easily recognized by their distinct markings such as masked facial appearance and ringed tail.  Their constant search for food and shelter often brings raccoons close to our homes making them one of Pennsylvania’s largest nuisance pests.

Raccoons are curious animals and will take advantage of any opportunity they come across.  The most common signs of a raccoons presence is raided trash can, damaged bird feeders and dug up lawns. They are mainly nocturnal animals  with most activity at night, but signs of their presence is unmistakable. 

In early spring female raccoons search out secure locations to give birth to a litter of 3-5 young. They will take advantage of any opportunity to enter a home or building through uncapped chimneys, vents and weak points of building materials.  A litter of young raccoons produces sounds similar to chirping birds and can be a telltale sign of their residence.

Other signs of raccoons on your property can be their foot prints across a deck, dug up flower pots or even damage caused to roofs or building materials. They are strong animals and can pull off shingles, tears weak screening and damage exhaust vents in their attempt to enter a home. Once inside they will damage attic insulation, air ducts and leave behind concentrations of feces creating an unsafe environment.

Raccoon removal can involve setting traps to catch and remove nuisance animals. Trapping can be a quick and effective way to control a situation but is not a long term solution to a raccoon problem. Raccoon exclusion involves securing all weak points of a structure to block or deter future raccoon invasions. Installing proper fitting chimney vaps, screen vents, metal flashing and capping are all examples of raccoon exclusion and can prevent a problem before it begins.
