Skunks are a common nuisance animal in suburban and rural gardens — not only because they dig up plants, but also because they present an annoyance and potential health risk to you and your pets. Skunks can also carry unwanted parasites into your yard while they search for food. Although skunks are less likely than opossums or stray cats to be major flea carriers, they can drop flea eggs in the yard. Also, skunks can be infected with the roundworm Baylisascaris columnaris, which might pose a risk to your pets if they ingest the skunk’s feces. If you are facing a skunk invasion, we recommend you seek professional skunk-removal services from Essen Pest Control to get rid of them.

ANIMAL INFO: SKUNK

Skunks are known to harbor parasites — internally and externally. Tapeworms, roundworms, lungworms, flukes, as well as fleas, ticks, and lice — along with the diseases they carry — are commonly found in or on skunks. These parasites can carry their own set of pathogens that can cause illnesses in people and pets.

Another danger skunks pose is from their dead bodies. As a skunk carcass decomposes, harmful bacteria it harboured can multiply — potentially causing infections if they come into contact with your skin or mucous membranes. If all your do-it-yourself attempts and tricks have failed to get rid of skunks, contact Essen Pest Control for safe and effective removal.
