Skunk Removal, Cleanup & Repair Services
Skunks are a common nuisance in Show Low and nearby White Mountains communities. While they may be shy and slow-moving, these nocturnal animals can cause major headaches for homeowners—especially when they take up residence under decks, porches, sheds, or crawlspaces. In addition to their unmistakable odor, skunks can damage structures, dig up lawns, and carry harmful diseases.
Common Signs of a Skunk Problem
Because they’re mostly active at night, skunks often go unnoticed until damage—or smell—becomes obvious. Here are a few signs you may have a skunk on your property:
-
Strong, lingering odor near or under your home
-
Small holes dug in your yard (searching for grubs or insects)
-
Sounds of digging, scratching, or movement under structures
-
Pet confrontations with wildlife
-
Skunk droppings near decks, sheds, or crawlspaces
If you notice these signs, it’s important to act fast. Skunks can spray when they feel cornered, and their spray can linger for days. They’re also known carriers of rabies and other diseases, making professional removal the safest choice.
Our Skunk Removal Process
Adventure Pest and Wildlife uses a careful, step-by-step approach to resolve skunk problems while keeping your family and pets safe:
-
Inspection – We inspect your property to locate the skunk’s den, identify entry points, and assess potential risks
-
Live Trapping – We use humane live traps in compliance with Arizona wildlife regulations to capture and relocate the animal
-
Exclusion & Repairs – Once the skunk is removed, we seal up entry points and reinforce vulnerable areas to prevent future invasions
-
Cleanup Recommendations – We can advise on deodorizing, soil replacement, or repairs if needed, depending on damage or contamination
Our goal isn’t just to remove the skunk—it’s to make sure it doesn’t come back.
Why Skunks Are Common in the White Mountains
The White Mountains region, with its mix of forest, open land, and residential neighborhoods, provides the perfect environment for skunks to thrive. In areas like Show Low, Pinetop-Lakeside, Snowflake–Taylor, and Heber-Overgaard, skunks are often drawn to properties that offer food (like pet food or trash), water sources, and quiet places to den.
Seasonal cabins, vacation homes, and homes with crawlspaces are especially vulnerable during spring and fall, when skunks are most active.
