    Don't be silly . Hang blanket over long sides of live trap after its set and use marmalade etc for bait . Then move up and cover ends when caught . Dump TRAP AND ALL in a barrel of water . AU Wieder Sehen .

    The trick is to wet your finger and sneak up behind it and shove your finger in as far as you can and bend your knuckle, that way they can't get away and they won't spray......... Never tried it but if your man enough to grab it by its neck then this would be right up there. Lol

    If you can shoot it near where it is without the neighbours calling SWAT, you can coax it out with a trick I learned first hand many moons ago. We had a skunk take up residence under the steps of the hunt camp and we were afraid the dogs would get blasted. My cousin's grandfather said to take a bone from the pork hops we had for supper and tie some fishing line to it. When the skunk comes out to inspect it, pull it away from him about six inches. Keep doing this until he is far enough away that you can live with whatever stench and shoot it. We got about 60-70 yards from the camp before we were running out of daylight and I planted a 36 grain hollow point between his eyes. The next morning the stink wasn't so bad as the night before, and we didn't have to deal with skunky dogs.
    Learn all you can about nature. What we don't understand, we fear and what we fear, we destroy.
    Teach a young person to hunt and fish, after all, someone taught you.

    Ok guys! I have thought this one over quite a bit.....far too much actually as you will soon find out. So heres the plan.

    Go to a wrecking yard and pick up one unused airbag....place airbag steel up near the skunks hideout....place a piece of plywood on the steel backing of the airbag and put something yummy on it..... <<see where this is going>> run wire from the airbag into your hideout where the battery is at the ready....judging by the distance this scenario will send my nephews teddy bear I'm inclined to think the skunk will not be returning....the one thing I almost forgot is to make sure and do a trial run on the neighbours cat... they always land on their feet...right?
    How is it one careless cigarette can cause a forest fire, but it takes a whole box of matches to light a campfire?
