Trapping Skunks
Skunks are members of the weasel family and there are four species of skunk in North America: striped skunks, hooded skunks, spotted skunks and hog-nosed skunks. The most common are striped skunks, measuring 20 to 30 inches long (including the tail) and weighing 6 to 10 pounds with two wide stripes on the back that meet on the head. They are slow-moving animals but have strong forefeet and long nails which make them excellent diggers.

Havahart® offers a variety of repellent and live animal cage trap solutions to help rid you of skunks in your yard and in your home.
