An old fellow showed me how he trapped skunks.He had a wooden potato barrel mounted on a pivot rod on two stakes driven in to the ground.He had a ramp going up to the open end of the barrel.The pivot rod was off center so the barrel swung open end up.He had a figure 4 trigger outside the barrel.A bit of hay rope tied to a chicken wing inside the barrel tripped the figure 4,barrel swung up right .Skunk couldnt get out.If the barrel was upright next morning he went to a near by garage and borrowed their exhaust hose.He put a tarp on the open end of the barrel, stuck the hose under the tarp and gave the skunk some exhaust gas.Moving them is foolish, they will come back.A fellow who live trapped racoons marked some with spray paint then moved them a good distance away.He caught the marked racoons again.I use a box trap and shoot them with a 22.Some borrowed my last box trap, never returned it.My rat size box trap got borrowed so much that I never had it when I needed it.When a skunk sprays under my porch or stinks up the cat I trap him and make sure Stinky doesnt do it again.
