Skunk Removal in Sacramento County

Skunks are not only a nuisance pest but they can carry diseases like rabies that are dangerous to people and pets. While skunks don’t attack people they will become defensive if provoked and can spray a strong odor that may be very unpleasant for humans. If you find yourself with a skunk problem it is best to seek professional help for the best results. If you are considering trying to deal with the skunk yourself, remember that it’s illegal in many areas to capture wild animals without a permit and there is a very real risk of getting sprayed if you attempt to trap a skunk.
