What to Expect

When you call Green Rodent Restoration for a skunk problem in the areas we serve, you're getting a technician who understands these animals and how to safely and effectively remove them. Our systematic approach begins with a thorough, detailed inspection of your entire property. This isn't just a quick look; it's a systematic search for all signs of skunk activity, including den sites, entry points, foraging areas, tracks, droppings, and of course, the source of any pervasive odors. We meticulously check under decks, sheds, porches, crawl spaces, and around foundations to pinpoint where they're living and what's attracting them.

Based on our inspection findings, we'll deploy one way doors strategically placed in areas of known skunk activity, often near den entrances or foraging paths. Our goal is to capture the skunk without causing it undue stress or prompting a spray, using specific monitoring and techniques tailored to skunk behavior and safety. Our commitment doesn't end with setting one way doors; we ensure they are checked regularly by our trained team, which is crucial for the animal's welfare and to ensure prompt and safe removal once a skunk is captured, minimizing its time in the one way door.

Once a skunk is caught, our trained technicians handle the removal with the utmost care and expertise, employing specialized techniques to minimize the risk of spraying. We adhere strictly to all local and state regulations regarding wildlife relocation, ensuring the skunk is safely transported to an appropriate, natural environment away from your property. Removal is only half the battle; to prevent future issues, we'll provide a detailed report and professional recommendations for exclusion work, sealing off entry points to prevent future skunk (or other wildlife) incursions. We also offer professional sanitation and specialized odor treatment services to remove lingering smells and potential health hazards, restoring the comfort and hygiene of your home and yard.
