Do you have an invasive skunk?
The striped skunk is a mammal that is very common in Quebec. Known for its distinctive black and white fur and especially for its powerful jet of foul-smelling secretion, it has adapted to various environments, including urban areas.
Reasons to call an exterminator
- Protecting your property: Skunks can cause significant damage to your home, including digging under the foundation or damaging your lawn.
- Preventing diseases: Skunks can transmit rabies. It is therefore important to keep them away from your environment.
- Protecting your pets: Skunks can attack pets, especially dogs, by spraying them with a foul-smelling secretion.
Calling a professional exterminator to get rid of a skunk is the safest and most effective solution.
