Q:

Pepe!

I have my own ‘skunk’ friend, naturally I named it Pepe.

Anywho, took some pics of him when I went out side to feed it, he don’t bother me so I don’t shoot his ass 😈

I can walk up to it pretty much, as long if I have a piece of balogna on me!

There is a bunch of ’em living under neath the rock wall behind my shed. I don’t dare go down there, there’s 3 baby skunks and a couple big ass skunks that come out during the night usually, I don’t feel like getting blitzkrieged.

Here’s some pics.

Zoomed in!

From my rocks.

Going back home.

Mythbusters tested that peroxide, baking soda and dish soap mixture
worked better than commercial skunk remover and tomato sauce.
I’ve used it and can say that it worked well.

You guys are old school!

Get your self some scent killer at your local archery shop!

Tomato paste is for spegetti sauce! 😀

The best cocktail to wash skunks from dogs.

I big wad of Heinz tomato paste, and Tide liquid laundry detergent.

Dogs came out clean enough to be in the house the same night.

If you travel with dogs, at least keep the Tide in the car. That stuff stow easy in its plastic jug, and washes almost anything from a dog. You can thank me later. 😉

Tomato works on humans too… 😆 😆 😆

Cool, great photos.

Just don’t have a big old goofy hound that thinks she can mess with them !

I was sleeping out in the screen porch, this time of yr. The friggen goofy hound
takes after a skunk. Then alpha male (Shiba) decides he should kill it.

I wake up with my mouth burning (like eating peppers) and the smell is burning my eyes !!
Both dogs sprayed ! Male has blood all over his front, he is drooling black stuff.

So I scrubbed all of us at 2 am. The blood was from the skunk. Flushed the male’s eye with saline (contact lense stuff)

I smelled as bad as the dogs !!!

Careful they have dynamite in their butts !!! 😯

keep costco sized cans of tomato paste on hand at all times, trust me it works, I have done the 2am tomato scrub down on the dog more times than I care to remember, he is just a little 35 pounder that kills everything he can catch especially if it resembles a cat in any way shape or form.

HAHA-
My buddy got a ketchup bath 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)
Still smelled like shit

We had a family of Stinkers that grew up close to the house where we moved from. At first the adults were very leery. After a few week, they felt just fine around us.

They brought out to baby’s for us to see. 😀 Good looking little shits!

Never a bit of trouble out of them. I just always talked to them whether they were insight or not when I would walk to the Shop in the dark. Neither of us needed any sudden surprises! 😯

Go ahead and let them move in. Once a couple of
them have sprayed and you have to smell them 24/7 ol pepe will
cease to be your pet LOL. 😉

Nah, put some of that stuff in a cologne bottle and I’m good to go.
The redneck in me nostril says no to flowers and soap and yes to
skunk spray, burnt rubber, WD40 and diesel smoke. eh?

Good friend of mine walked around a corner and got the stink shot at him and smelled like shit for days.
I say waste the stink bombs, do yourself a favor.

So long as you make noise when you approach them, you should be fine. Skunks, like other members of the badger family, have poor eyesight. I’ve had them walk within 10 yards of me at dusk and not think anything of it.

I had several coming by to eat some food I leave out and even had one to take food from my hand. I could walk out on the porch with them there and they would come to eat. Was pretty cool.

They moved on, as they always do and I’ve not seen but one or two a year since.

Lol, in that case I’d have to exterminate them..

Having an unknown skunk approach you courageously is a weird feeling. A blitzkrieg is the last thing you want!
