Hate catching skunks!

do the skunks bother the pigeons hal...?

Only if they can get in to the loft. Eat eggs, kill young ones. Gets in to any garbage they can find, pry open etc,. Of course stink like hell if threatened. Can spray up to 15 feet. Had the dogs out when I noticed him in the trap. Got the dogs back from hunting rabbits then covered the trap. Old plastic tablecloth. He did not spray, being in semi-darkness. Hooked a rope to the cage and dragged him down to the creek. Carefully, extremely carefully, opened the trap with grippers and got the hell away. He came out with his tail up, all pissed off. He headed for the creek. Was just going to shoot him but wife objected. He should not come back.

So what was the final solution to the problem/issue Edgie there. The gun scenario or did you drag them all down to the creek for a swimming lesson like Hal .

"ant" powder comes to mind, but in the end theres just too many.
