Granted that there were wild animals burrowing in your house, you tried to ignore them as much as you can. Despite the nuisance and mess they've made, you still held your calm in hope that one day these unwanted guests will leave. But the worst case scenario happened. Due to some unfortunate event, your unwanted guest, which turned out to be a skunk, died, leaving his carcass decomposing on your deck.

 

Dead skunk removal may be one of the most disturbing and smelly experiences. Skunks are notorious for their foul odour often used to deter threats and other creatures. Such odour is powerful enough to ward off bears and other potential attackers, even causing irritation and temporary blindness when it directly hits someone's eye.  The foul odour of skunks is doubled in rigor mortis. Most people could not handle the smell of a decomposing animal, more so a skunk.  

 

Dead skunk removal is a delicate procedure. The homeowner must make sure that the skunk's dead body be properly disposed of before it attracts other animals. Proper handling of dead skunk is vital in keeping you and your family safe. Though it can be done personally, dead skunk removal is very dangerous to your health. Even if one puts on thick gloves, skunks may carry various diseases and viruses that can be transferred to the person handling it. Since it is difficult to determine the cause of a skunk's death, one can only hypothesize whether it is due to some illness or fatal disease. In any case, the health of the one handling the skunk's body will be jeopardized if it is not done correctly.  Furthermore, if the skunk has died for sometime, there would be maggots and flies hovering over its body.

 

It is highly recommended that proper wildlife control authorities be contacted for dead skunk removal. This ensures that not only will the dead skunk be handled carefully, but contaminated materials or areas will be cleared and cleaned to remove the foul odor and diseases that may result from it.
