TBT: I got out and around the yard at 10 am and thought about the skunks I saw. 2 in the cage, they must really love honeydew melons. I was trying to catch the groundhog. I walked to the cage with a large tarp in front of me and draped it over the cage. They didn't see that as a threat. Covered, the cage went into the large tub of water. 20 seconds of confusion, a blub, and they're gone.
I gave them their chance by releasing them for the cage twice. But they were interfering with my attempts to get rid of the groundhog. Three strikes and they were out.
Ooooh. I wish there had been another way, but it sounds as though you'd thought it through and there wasn't. How far does the smell extend?

That's sad. But skunks are weird ones. Sometimes there's nothing else you can do with them.
ReplyDeleteTo attract a groundhog , rub apple cider all over the trap- I found that online for my hubby. We didn't have cider so he cut an apple and it worked.
