About Skunks in Metro Vancouver
A musky smell, shallow burrows, and flipped sod often mean a skunk has claimed a void under your deck or shed. They are excellent diggers and will reopen weak repairs. We inspect for multiple entries, grub feeding in lawns, and pet food left outside that keeps them returning. After removal or exclusion, we recommend durable lattice or buried mesh—not loose rocks—that still allows drainage inspections. If a pet was sprayed, we can point you to practical deodorizing steps while we fix the access problem.
