Here's a different perspective on skunks from Animal Control Officer Chuck McCleary. This was posted on the Gardening Tips & Tricks page.

Hello. I'm the skunk. Yes, I sprayed your dog. I know.
Let me explain what happened.
Your dog ran at me in the dark. I turned around. I
lifted my tail. I gave him TWO warning stamps with my
front feet. He kept coming. So I sprayed.
I can spray accurately up to 15 feet. I have 5-6 shots
before I need 10 days to reload. I don't WANT to spray.
It's my only defense. I can't fight. I can't run fast.
I can't climb. Spray is all I have.
Your dog ignored two warnings and a raised tail. I used
my last resort. I'd argue that's on him.
But let's talk about what I was doing in your yard
BEFORE the incident.
I was digging small holes in your lawn. Those holes?
That's me pulling grubs out of the soil. Japanese beetle
larvae. June bug larvae. The grubs that are destroying
your lawn from underneath.
I eat 400+ grubs per season. Plus beetle larvae.
Crickets. Grasshoppers. Mice. Voles. And yellowjacket
nests.
YELLOWJACKET NESTS. I dig them up and eat every single
one. Larvae, pupae, adults. The entire colony. I'm
immune to their stings. My thick fur and skin protect
me. I am the #1 natural predator of ground-nesting
yellowjackets.
You spent $150 to have a yellowjacket nest removed last
August. I would have done it for free. In one night.
"But the smell."
Tomato juice doesn't work. Use this: 1 quart hydrogen
peroxide (3%), 1/4 cup baking soda, 1 teaspoon dish
soap. Apply to dry fur. Let sit 5 minutes. Rinse.
Gone.
What to do:
Don't let your dog outside unleashed at night during
skunk season (Feb-April = mating season — they're
extra active right now).
If you see a skunk — back away slowly. They give
multiple warnings. If the tail goes up and front feet
stamp, you have 3 seconds.
Don't block their path. Don't corner them. Let them
leave.
Appreciate the grub control. Those small lawn holes?
That's free pest removal.
I'm sorry about the dog.
But he had 2 warnings and a raised tail.
And your lawn has never looked better because of me.

Yesterday I had this great opportunity! I learned a lot and if this country doesn’t do something to retain and draw in new farmers plus keep our farm lands from being developed OUR country is going to be super dependent on other countries for our food supply.
