Skunk Removal for California homes and businesses

We handle skunk removal throughout California. Skunks removed from under decks, porches and sheds, with dig-proof barriers so they stay out. You get photographs of what we found and a written scope before anything starts.

Commercial properties across California need work scheduled around trading hours and documented for inspections. We handle restaurants, warehouses, retail and multi-unit housing on evening and overnight schedules.

California ranges from roof rats and skunks in coastal suburbs to ground squirrels and rattlesnakes inland, with bat colonies common in older tile and Spanish-style roofs.

Call (276) 319-2391 or request an inspection and we will book a window that works.

How it runs

  1. Call and describe it

    Tell us what you are hearing, seeing or smelling at (276) 319-2391. Animals loose indoors and injured animals are dispatched immediately. Everything else gets an inspection window.

  2. Full inspection and flat quote

    We survey the roof line, foundation and crawl space, photograph every entry point, and give you one fixed number in writing. Nothing starts until you approve it.

  3. Remove, seal, clean

    The animal comes out humanely, every entry point is sealed under warranty, and contamination is cleaned up. You get before and after photographs.

What California customers say

★★★★★

Attic smelled for months after a previous removal. Turned out the nesting material was never taken out. They cleared it properly.

Wendy S., California
★★★★★

Flying squirrels, which apparently are different from grey squirrels in every way that matters. They knew that. The last company did not.

Skunk Removal in California: frequently asked questions

Will they spray during removal?
Rarely, if it is done calmly and correctly. Handling that startles a skunk is what causes spraying, so the work is deliberately slow and quiet.
How do I stop them digging under the deck again?
A dig-proof barrier trenched in along the perimeter. Trapping alone leaves the den open for the next skunk, and there is always a next skunk.
Why is my lawn full of cone-shaped holes?
Skunks digging for grubs. Treating the grubs removes the reason they are visiting, which matters as much as removing the animal.
What about babies under the deck?
We check before anything is sealed. Kits are removed by hand and kept with the mother, then the whole family is relocated together.
Can you get rid of the smell in California?
Yes, with odour neutralising treatment at the den site. Surface products alone do not work if the source under the structure is still there.
How much does skunk removal cost?
Mostly driven by how much barrier trenching the structure needs. Quoted flat after we see the deck or shed.
What areas of California do you cover?
We serve the whole of California, including rural counties. If you are not sure whether your address is covered, call (276) 319-2391 and we will confirm in under a minute.
Is the exclusion work warrantied in California?
Yes. The points we seal carry a written warranty. If something gets back in through one of them, we return and put it right.
