Raccoon Repellents
Skunks are one of the most frightening animals to have near the home, and for good cause. The most common problem with these mammals is that they stink! Skunks are known to spray anything they perceive to be an adversary, and their extraordinarily stinky spray has been known to travel up to 23 feet. Skunks will only attack if cornered or defending their young, and they will frequently spray pets that they perceive to be a threat. However, spraying isn't the first method of defense. Skunks will spit, growl, puff their fur, shake their tail, and stomp their feet on the ground. They will lift their tail and spray their famed skunk odor if the invader does not leave.

Vent ducts, insulation, fan vents, cooling systems, insulation, and even robust wood beams can all be shredded by their razor-sharp claws and teeth. They also defecate and urinate in large quantities, usually in the same place where they have set up their "restroom." This feces and urine become lodged in the insulation and eventually soak through to the underlying wood. All of this means that your raccoon problem is unlikely to improve over time. It's only going to get worse. If a raccoon dies in your home, you'll know immediately since the smell is terrible.

Bat Control, Removal & Exclusion
Skunks are nocturnal, which means that they are most active at night. They don't hibernate in the classic sense, but they do go dormant for the coldest months of the year, when many congregate in communal dens for warmth. One of the only other times that skunks tend to mingle is during mating season. Skunks have 4-12 young in litters that are born between late April and early June. They dig holes in lawns, gardens, and golf courses in search of food, however they prefer insects, earthworms, and grubs. They may even burrow under buildings by entering foundation openings if no other means of shelter is available.
