Skunk update: no pics or activity at entrance…we’ve had some exterior work being done on the house so maybe they didn’t come out last night?  My luck is that the spray we smelled was her giving birth and she’ll emerge with a full litter.

Skunk update: no pics on game camera although hole has been disturbed. No smells. I impatiently wait.

[motojobobo]

The waiting game….never easy. I look forward to your updates, picas, and good luck!

So here is a pic of a white skunk with beady eyes and a hairless tail. This animal, some cats and a few chipmunks are all I’ve gotten on the trail camera so far. No stink since initial bomb either. I’m perplexed

[goosehd]

@SKT That's an opossum…

[SKT]

@goosehd  I’m sticking with white, hairless-tailed, marsupial mutant skunk   at least she didn’t have any babies on her back. Possums freak me all the way out.

[SKT]

Ok, possum jokes aside, I finally got a pic of the skunk. My wife and I smelled it at around 10 pm…this pic was taken at around 3 am. So it looks like it doesn’t travel every day which will make it hard to pattern if I want to seal entrance while I’m 100% sure it’s gone. Hmm…thoughts?

After talking to our neighbors, it looks like this guy sprayed their dog last week!  I think I’ve found the trapping solution

[vaquero357]

…@SKT all sorts of critters creeping around!

...now thats a serious trap!

[motojobobo]

That trap looks perfect if it is a single animal.
Good luck!

I say shoot the little  bastard.
there are Hav a Heart traps but…

[DrPat]

Maybe it's time to call in a professional.  At some point soon, that will cost less (in both time and money) than trapping it yourself.

Unless, of course, it's been a bit boring around the house and you're looking for some excitement.  You can't put a price on that

I saw a mama skunk with a bunch of babies following her around a couple weeks ago and it was one of the cutest things I've ever seen.

Skunk update—no more pics or smells [emoji2371]. I’ve covered the hole and we are leaving for vacation tomorrow. Fingers crossed nothing goes awry while we’re gone. Neighbors on the lookout now too so it’s become a team effort to find Pepe a new home. Will report when we get home next week.

I went in Ooni’s website exactly one time at work. 4 days later I receive this in the mail at home. First ever time I’ve received an ad from them. Think is a coincidence? I think not. That’s a bold move openly letting people know you are tracking their home address from a click. Currently looking into the competitors pizza setup .

Won’t happen again. Works well.

MY IH indigo henley was marked as delivered by UPS. I was not home so no one signed for it, and there was no package. My neighbor was outside weeding and we live on a dead end street, and he said no UPS truck came. There were no camera events on my doorbell camera. So, the driver failed to deliver the package, claimed that he did, and falsified my signature.

I have filed a claim with UPS but I am pissed off.

@mclaincausey really sorry about this.  We will investigate and escalate it our end as well and hopefully get this resolved for you.  We will keep you updated via email

[mclaincausey]

Thank you—I was not angling for you to get involved and it is not your fault but the help is as appreciated as it is unsurprising, @AdamC

[goosehd]

It’s sad that this is becoming more common as well as porch piracy…

Kudos to the crew for trying to assist and find a solution.
