Skunk smell and taste

[swampfox440]

Sorry I forgot to add that if you take a black light around the coop in the dark you will see where the spray is being deposited . I keep a flash light that is black light for this reason . I should have stated that earlier . Those stinkers got to go .

It also shows urine, as tomcat, or any urine.

That is great info, I would have never guessed that about using a black light?

Some years ago the many skunks around us were wiped out by distemper. Haven't seen any in ages.(hope I didn't jinx it).
