Residents in the Kansas City Metro area are very aware of the skunk's method of defense, and most people will not approach skunks for this reason. Your pets, however, will be curious if they see these medium-sized critters in their surrounding area. Skunk spray can temporarily blind humans and pets, and skunks can tear up landscapes, so we recommend you don't approach them if you are not well-trained. If you suspect you have a skunk problem, don't attempt to handle them by yourself. Call Critter Control of Kansas City Metro today at Kansas: 913.912.8985 or Missouri: 816.654.6922 or contact us HERE to schedule your skunk removal inspection.
Keeping Skunks Away
Skunks are found most frequently visiting homes that have a lot of vegetation or bugs, even though they prefer wooded areas in which they can find shelter somewhere on your property. When you come across a skunk, it is mostly in areas like your patio or deck because they are good hiding spots. Skunks are not picky eaters, often consuming mice, rats, vegetation, bugs, and even trash (just like raccoons do)! Critter Control of Kansas City Metro professional technicians will remove skunks from your property and implement prevention techniques to keep them from coming back.
