I already have: gone under house and put moth balls.

Sprayed Hydrogen Peroxide, with baking

soda and soap mix.

spread cidar chips

80% of the smell has been contained. Is there something else I can do??????????????????????????

Thank you in advance for your response.

Seriously.. How long ago did this happen? I had a dog that got sprayed once.. smell lasted through several tomato juice baths, and every other concoction I was told would work. Finally, it just went away.

Got skunk problems? Well, your troubles are over. There are quite a few

ways to get rid of skunk odors, and I'll tell you the best combination.

I'll also tell you how to make sure the skunks do not return.

First of all, you're going to have to get some vinegar and boil it

wherever the smell is. I'm not much of a chemist, but there's some kind

of bonding issue here getting rid of the smell. So, boil that vinegar, a

good pan of it. Then get a mixture of vinegar, ammonia, and vanilla.

Spread that around the affected area. Also, if you want to speed the

process up, place some fresh coffee grinds down, big bowls of them. Now,

after the last two parts have been sitting around for a while, there may

still be something left, in which case you should get an air ionizer/ozone

generator. But don't use it if it's outside, there's too much other junk

in the air getting in the way. Make sure there's lots of air circulation

through this whole process, use fans, windows, or whatever you need.

Next you want to make sure they do not return. I suggest against

using traps or shooting, it's unpleasant and not needed. First of all,

remove brush piles, stacked lumber, wood piles, and similar sources of

shelter which skunks can find inviting, you don't want them living around

you or all your work from above will be for nothing. Next, make sure that

they don't have access to any holes in your house. Block them up. Next

you have to make a mixture. Mix 8 oz. Murphy's oil soap with 4 oz. of

castor oil and 1 oz. (a shot glass) of human urine into 1 gallon of water.

Spray this mixture on your entire yard. Also, if you really want to keep

them away, get some hair from your barber and spread that around your

yard. Don't go crazy, remember, it's the smell; skunks have a far keener

sense of smell than humans, and it's the odor of this stuff that keeps

them away. You don't need so much as anyone will notice it's there.

Hopefully these measures will work. If the problem persists, try

contacting Cheryl Royer, a skunk breeder, at royerc@mgmt.purdue.edu. --67.65.58.165

If you would like information on this email me at brent@brentmelvin.com.

These machines are amazing. They eliminate virtually every odor(pet odors, smoke, mildew, dust, pet dander, bacteria).

Have a great day!
