No one wants to deal with skunks, but Icon Pest can help with all skunk removal in Caledon. Not only are they stinky, but their odour can even cause nausea and vomiting. Burning eyes is yet another negative side effect of a skunk’s spray. Skunks often carry rabies. There is a long list of reasons skunks should not be part of your property.
Skunks often burrow under sheds, decks, stairs and stoops. They destroy lawns by digging holes when looking for grubs, one of their favourite food sources.

How to Get Rid of Skunk Smell
The odour a skunk leaves behind can end up staying in your home for days or even weeks if not treated or ventilated. Here are some ways you can eliminate the smell from your space.
- Mix the following ingredients and rub them into your pet. Keep the mixture on your pet for five minutes, and then rinse off. This mixture will neutralize the odour. Be aware that hydrogen peroxide can discolour fabric. Washing your pet as soon as possible is essential so the smell does not sink in.
- 1 quart of 3-percent hydrogen peroxide
- one teaspoon of liquid dishwashing soap
- 1/4 cup baking soda.
- If you or someone in your family gets sprayed, wash with a grease-cutting dish detergent or soak in a baking soda bath for 20 minutes. Add four cups of baking soda to hot water.
- Fresh air is the best way to clear out the foul air. If a skunk sprays in your house or basement, open up windows to air out the rooms. Turning on fans gets the air circulating even more! Open up the shades since sunlight oxidizes the smell.
- Light candles since the flames can help break down the odour molecules.
- Use odour-absorbing products, like Fresh Wave Gel. These products absorb the smell in the air.
- Putting out bowls of ground coffee or vinegar can help absorb the odour from the air.
- Wipe down hard surfaces with a water and bleach mixture. Test this mixture on wood or ceramic tile before applying it all over the surface.
- Replace all filters in your home. Filters are in air conditioners, the furnace, and heaters.
