John Bacon Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 Skunks eat grubs so controlling the grub population in your lawn should help. Most chemicals have been banned in Ontario but you can try nematodes. You probably won't get any benefits until next year. It the short term; you can try commercial coyote urine scent... I would assume that skunks would want to avoid coyotes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manitoubass2 Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 I think I lost a dog to it as well? Not really sure though. I was told of a person here offering dogs food with anti freeze. But it was just speculation. A few weeks later I found a bone near my boxers house that we hadn't given here. Later that day she could barely walk and appeared blind. Then horrible convulsions. She died in my arms a few hours later with no use of her back legs. Traumatizing. My kids especially. Anyone that would do such a thing is a horrible horrible person Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manitoubass2 Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 She foamed a lot at the mouth too. But the vet said it could have been poisoned, or she may have had a type of cancer that isn't too rare in boxers. Either way it sure sucked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmer Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 Why do people move to a rural area/bush area and then proceed to want to kill all the wildlife??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mercman Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 I leave a radio playing in my garden shed. Usually on a news or talk chanel. The little stinkers will avoid the sound of a human voice. There are also electronic devises you can buy at most big hardware stores, that you plug in and leave. Works well and I haven't had 1 im my yard this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
