⚠️ Denning and Birth Season

Female skunks have selected their den sites and are giving birth or raising young kits. A skunk family under your deck will remain until kits are fully weaned and mobile — typically 8–10 weeks.

Skunk Removal in Causey, New Mexico — Local Context

Striped skunks, spotted skunks, and hog-nosed skunks all occur in the Southwest, making this the most skunk-diverse region in the country. Texas has all three species present in overlapping ranges. Skunk denning under structures is a year-round concern in the milder climate of Texas and Oklahoma, and skunk removal calls peak sharply in late winter during the breeding season.

All wildlife removal in New Mexico is regulated by the New Mexico Department of Game and Fish. Our Causey contractor is fully licensed under the New Mexico Department of Game and Fish and uses only permitted, humane removal methods.

Frequently Asked Questions — Skunk Removal in Causey

How much does skunk removal cost in Causey, New Mexico? +
Skunk trapping and removal in New Mexico typically costs $200–$500+. Deodorization of a sprayed area under a deck or inside a crawlspace adds $150–$400+. Exclusion to prevent skunks from returning to the same den site under your Causey structure adds $200–$500+.
Are skunks in New Mexico dangerous? +
Skunks are one of the primary rabies carriers in New Mexico, regulated by the New Mexico Department of Game and Fish. A skunk that is active in daylight, approaches humans, or moves erratically may be rabid and should be treated as an emergency. Do not attempt to trap or handle a potentially rabid skunk — call a licensed professional in Causey immediately.
How do skunks get under my deck in Causey? +
Skunks dig under skirting, through soil gaps, and around openings at the base of any structure that provides sheltered den access. Females specifically seek these locations in late winter to give birth. Once a skunk has denned under your Causey structure, it will return the following year if the entry point is not sealed with buried hardware cloth.
What time of year are skunks most dangerous in New Mexico? +
Skunk activity in New Mexico peaks during breeding season — January through March — when males roam at night seeking mates and have a strong spraying response to any perceived threat. This is the period with the highest risk of pets being sprayed near Causey homes. Females establish den sites under structures in February and March to give birth, and will remain until kits are fully weaned — typically 8–10 weeks.
How do I get rid of skunk smell in my Causey home? +
Enzyme-based commercial deodorizers outperform home remedies like tomato juice. For spray inside a crawlspace or enclosed area in Causey, professional-grade oxidizing agents and fogging equipment are required. Standard store-bought products rarely eliminate skunk odor completely from confined spaces — professional deodorization is the only reliable solution.
