Skunk Removal & Prevention in Olive Branch, MS

Though skunks are generally non-aggressive, having them take up residence under your deck, shed, or home creates significant risks for property owners. Striped skunks are common throughout Mississippi and Tennessee, frequently establishing dens in residential areas where food and shelter are readily available.

You may suspect a skunk problem when noticing persistent musky odors around your property, even without spraying incidents. Look for shallow, cone-shaped holes in your lawn where skunks dig for grubs and insects. Other signs include tracks with five toes and visible claw marks, disturbed garbage, or freshly dug burrows near structures. Most homeowners first notice skunk activity at night, as these nocturnal animals forage after dark.

Issues Skunks Can Cause at Your Olive Branch Home

When skunks inhabit your property, they create several significant issues:

  • Their powerful defensive spray can contaminate your home, belongings, and pets, creating odors that persist for weeks.
  • They dig extensive burrows that can damage foundations, decks, and landscape features.
  • Skunks are known carriers of rabies, presenting health risks to families and pets.
  • Their foraging behavior damages lawns and gardens as they dig for insects and grubs.
  • They may attract other predators to your property, compounding wildlife problems.
  • Territorial behaviors increase during mating season, raising the risk of spray incidents.

At Magnolia Wildlife Solutions, our wildlife specialists understand skunk behavior patterns and implement strategic removal techniques that minimize stress to the animals and eliminate risks to your property. Our comprehensive approach addresses both the immediate skunk problem and its underlying causes.

Comprehensive Skunk Trapping & Control Solutions

Our skunk management process involves several specialized steps designed for maximum effectiveness and safety. We begin with a thorough property assessment to identify active skunk dens, entry points, and attractants. Using humane trapping methods specifically designed for skunks, our technicians safely capture and relocate these animals according to state wildlife regulations.

Following capture, we implement exclusion measures to seal potential den sites and entry points under decks, sheds, and crawlspaces using heavy-gauge screening and other durable materials. We then apply natural deterrents and habitat modification strategies to make your property less attractive to future skunk visitors. Our service includes follow-up inspections to ensure complete resolution and ongoing protection.

Our technicians are specially trained in skunk handling techniques that minimize the risk of defensive spraying during the removal process, protecting your property from contamination.
