Maryland is full of wildlife, including snakes, squirrels, raccoons, skunks, opossums, and more. Wildlife removal is a complex field. I recommend professional Ellicott City wildlife control services if you want to solve a critter problem legally and correctly. For example, we specialize in animals in the attic, which have broken into the house and almost always have a nest of baby animals. It is necessary to perform correct preventative repairs to keep pest animals a out of your house for good. We perform full building inspection, do the the repairs and we also offer attic decontamination if necessary. Rats and mice love to live in attics, and can chew wires or leave droppings. Some Ellicott City animals frequently enter homes, and correct removal is not a simple task.
DOG or CAT: If you need assistance with a domestic animal, such as a dog or a cat, you need to call your local
Howard County Animal Control
for assistance. They can help you out with issues such as stray dogs, stray cats, vaccinations, licenses,
pet adoption, lost pets, and more. If you have a wildlife problem, you can try calling the Howard County animal control, and see what they have to
say, but they will certainly not help you with a complex wildlife problem such as critters in your attic. They are a free government agency that
helps with dog and cat issues only.

Ellicott City Wildlife Tip:
Do mothballs or ammonia help to repel the skunks
This is another method that most people are glued to. However, it always disappoints. The skunk might notice at first as it has a very strong sense of smell. However, it leaving your homestead is not assured. It might get used to the mothballs or ammonia or even opt to relocate to some other site in your homestead. The point is use of mothballs or ammonia to keep away skunks is a completely lame idea.
What do they do instead?
Skunks rarely miss the smell of mothballs or ammonia as they have a very sensitive sense of smell. This is simply why they tend to leave your homestead at first. They may be scared of its predators or they may just run for their own metabolism safety.
After sometimes however, the skunk will be back. The ammonia or mothballs smell may be less concentrated making it easier for the skunk to get used to it. Better still; the ammonia may relocate to some other site.
Nevertheless, in either way, it remains; using mothballs or ammonia to repel skunks is a method that will always disappoint.
Why think of other methods
The idea of using ammonia or mothballs to repel away skunks may sound so cheap and efficient at first. However, most of us do not consider other health effects that these items can pose to us or even the skunks. Here are some of the reasons why you should never think of using this method.
- Their effect is short lived_ we do not want to keep fighting with the skunk. Using mothballs or ammonia is a sure way of creating a way back for skunks in future.
- Has an effect on the respiratory system_ the smell is so strong and may end up causing irritations in your breathing system or that of skunks.
- They are expensive- they may sound cheap at first, but considering the fact that you have to keep spraying the ammonia so that it can remain effective makes it excessively expensive.
- Makes your house inhabitable_ the smell is awful. This easily scares your friends away or even makes it so uncomfortable for you to live in.
Do other repellents help?
Unfortunately, no. All smell repellents never keep away skunks for a long while. The skunk learns either to live with the smell or better still relocates to some other site.
Conclusion
The idea of using smell repellents to scare skunks is an idea should be dropped completely. It does not only waste your time, but also your money too. Always go for other methods of repelling skunks instead.
