What Creature Would Your Person Be?

Pile 1 - Pile 2 - Pile 3

Remember, this is a general reading and it may not resonate for everyone or completely. Tarot is a tool to help guide but you are responsible for your actions and life, you choose your path.

Tips!

|Pile 1

Tarot: Ten of Pentacles, The Hierophant, The Emperor, Four of Cups, Three of Swords, King of Cups, The Hanged Man, Ten of Cups, The Empress, Queen of Cups (bottom of the deck)

Oracle: The Skunk and Magnolia (protection), The Finch and Peach (romance), The Hawk and Thistle (graceful persistence)

This was a very allusive energy and it feels like it belongs to the sea. But my first thought was a male selkie as soon as I pulled the cards, which honestly makes sense why the energy is so slippery and allusive. Another creature could be a male siren. And male sirens exist in myths but were phased out during the 5th century for some reason.  Male selkies have been in legends and operate a little differently than their female counterparts (from what I know/heard). For those not looking for a male partner, adapt this to your liking. I just tell the messages how I receive them.

Selkies can be put in the same realm of sirens but I know them to be completely different. Selkies derive from Celtic and Norse legends and we really only hear of the female counterparts, yet male selkies exist. (One of my favorite movies is The Secret of Roan Inish and it is a story with a selkie in it.) Beautiful in their human forms, they naturally lure in humans from the land because they can easily seduce us and the humans try to steal their seal hide so that the selkie can stay with the human forever. Only once the selkie finds their seal skin, which the human had hid, can they go back home to the sea. Male selkies, from what I have heard, can roam both the land and sea freely, unlike the females who stick to the sea. And they aren’t a malevolent creature and do have a sense of familial responsibility. Which is why I naturally got “selkie” when looking at your cards. Your person being a siren wouldn’t make sense with the cards and it would teeter on your person being more loose with their love. Some stories say that to call in a male selkie, a woman must shed seven tears into the sea. And usually this comes from the woman missing and longing for their fisherman partner that is at sea. They usually target unhappy women.

To combine the legend with your dynamic with your partner, I think your person comes in after a heartbreak from your end and there could’ve been a null on your love life for a while, years even. There is an energy of almost giving up on love but you really hadn’t, there was a pause because of the hurt and because you developed a fear of putting your love into someone else when it could be all for nothing. But under all that, there is that intense longing. The hope that someone will be brought into your life and confirm that to love and be loved isn’t all for nothing. And I love how they gave me a water creature for your person because he comes in as the King of Cups to your Queen of Cups. Your person is so full of love and matches the love you have so there isn’t a one-sided dynamic. You also have The Emperor and Empress so there is a strong emphasis on being a really good pair for each other. And you both want commitment and have the same vision of what you want with each other and for your future together. There is a strong emphasis on family but I’m getting that family could look different for everyone. You could just want a family that is only the both of you since you’ve never had someone stable to come home to before or it could just be you two and your pets or children could be in the picture. Whatever it is, it’s your person’s top priority and they do everything for that. Nothing is more important. 

They would be someone to willingly give you their seal hide because they love you that much. I also kept getting the imagery of sea otters. How they use rocks to crack open shells, scallop shells, and how they hold hands when they sleep in the water together so they don’t lose each other. My sister mentioned something after this thought, and she didn’t know I brought up sea otters in this reading, but apparently the rocks can be passed down through the otter’s family. Take this message how it resonates.

|Pile 2

Tarot: Temperance, Nine of Wands, Ten of Pentacles, Ace of Wands, Five of Cups, The Hanged Man, Death King of Swords, Queen of Pentacles (bottom of the deck)

Oracle: The Bee and Pomegranate (productivity), The Caiman and Poppy (dreams), The Dragonfly and Pansy (balance)

I knew I was gonna get a dragon through one of the piles. Your person made themselves known even before pile 1. Before I even pulled your cards, I had the feeling of the air element. Dragons, for me, are a very well-rounded creature when it comes to all the elements. They are a creature that can rule it all. There are many, MANY stories of dragons and I can’t and won’t pinpoint an exact variation of dragon. But I will tell you what I’m seeing based on messages.

Your person, in regards to dragon traits, is very hardworking and gathers as much financial wealth as possible. They don’t really spend it either, like it kinda sits and racks up interest so they gain even more money. The classic image of a dragon that lays amongst all the gold and jewels and treasure. And they could encounter a lot of people that want to wiggle their way into your person’s life to get to all that wealth. People may say that they are selfish and greedy when your person’s boundaries get slammed down on these people’s greedy hands. They have extremely strong boundaries and they don’t have a lot of people around them. They keep a very strict few people around that they trust, to the point where they don’t even keep family around I don’t think. They worked hard to achieve what they did and they aren’t just gonna give it away to anything or anyone. There is a familial wound that they have around money and I can’t move past their shield to get the exact story, it will be something only you will be able to hear. 

I want to also preface by saying that they aren’t heartless. Dragons love very passionately, loyally, and protectively. They are someone that has waited for the spark in regards to finding a lover and that person that they ultimately get to share their love with is you, pile 2. And you aren’t an object of possession, but you get clumped in with their riches in importance. There is a strong territorial feeling when it comes to you but it’s more protective, not at all toxic. They are going to spoil you and support you in anything you want to do - they want to be successful together. You can do whatever you want as long as they get to love you. There’s a feeling of turning a dragon into a dog, kinda like “scary dog privileges.” 

I don’t know any stories of dragons only being able to communicate through dreams but I keep getting that message. I don’t know if your only encounters with them, so far, is only through your dreams. I think they are actively communicating to you through your dreams and you may not realize because you could be someone that forgets their dreams as soon as you wake up or they come though VERY cryptically.

If your person is male, they have a very big build. For some, this could be a “dad bod” but for others, they are very strong and have an active build to them. If they have a female figure, she’s more curvy with bigger breasts and wider hips, kinda the definition of a woman. Very handsome and beautiful.  18+ Warning: Your person, if they have male genitalia, is very well-endowed. We all know the stories of dragons having two members, like their reptilian counterparts.

I also heard the song Crimson and Clover.

|Pile 3

Tarot: Death, Ten of Swords , Six of  Wands, Two of Swords , Nine of Cups , The Devil, Seven of Pentacles , Page of Wands , Knight of Pentacles, Ace of  Cups (Bottom of the deck)

Oracle: The Snail and Huckleberry (trust in the invisible), The Opossum and Peony (bashfulness), The Quail and Gooseberry (anticipation), The Antelope and Wheat (nourishment)

Hmm, pile 3. I knew I was going to get a pile that has a more “dark” creature. And I personally don’t feel like your person takes on the original, dark and evil characteristics of these creatures. As someone that kinda romanticizes creatures like this, as I have OCs that take on some of these creatures, I believe your person wants to be seen as those characteristics I give these creatures when making my original characters. I just wanted to warn you before I get into the reading.

Now, your person could be a couple different creatures! But they are a creature that inherently “feeds” off a person.

Personally, demons don’t exist to me. Demons usually can be characterized by their trickster energy, which I closely align with fae folk. Your person could be coming through as an unseelie fae, succubi, a vampire, or a grim reaper/death. AGAIN, I want to preface this by saying your person isn’t aligning with the “evil” traits of these creatures. Your person is picking out traits that align with them, which I am going to get to.

Your person has an intense energy (I say as I get a little dizzy) and only a select few can handle this energy. Your person is very used to being solitary. This could be the pile that is looking for a more…temporary and fun partner. They like to have fun, they can seduce very easily, and they are extremely attractive. They can show you a good time. Or they could’ve had their share of temporary lovers in the past, not looking for anything serious, and when they get to you, they are more ready to settle down. Their skills of seduction, passion, and intimacy carry into your relationship and they become more geared towards you. 

They will be good at breaking down your insecurities and drawing out your deepest darkest desires and fantasies, for sure. They feed off passion as much as they give it, so once they get you to be as passionate as them, you could probably have them hooked for life since there's a continuous source of energy. An eternal battery, if you will. I’m getting Gomez and Morticia Addams. I think your lover is SO different from what you’re used to and you have only dreamt of a partner like this, like they are a deepest and darkest desire themselves, so you might not know what to do with them at first. They will definitely make you a little shy and speechless, especially since they are a little unpredictable in the best way. There could be a little anxiety but more excitement/anticipation. They feel like a guilty pleasure to you. I’m getting someone biting their bottom lip at the thought of this person. They feel like the dark character that a main character ends up being with instead of the blond character they start with. 

If this person does end up setting off red alerts to you, then I do suggest staying away from them. For some of you, I am getting that this is someone you SHOULD NOT get close to, at all. This isn’t your person.

@gokyacetakal gave me a prompt with the baby (7/8 year old) bad batch on earth but just saying "skunk". So ... Here we are

The Skunk

“WRECKER! FREEZE!” Lynn bellowed as she spotted the young boy running toward a small furry creature in the backyard.

The young boy came to a complete stop with his hand outstretched to touch the hissing thing as it stomped its black front legs. It was obviously taking all his will power not to cave and pet the creature.

“What is it? Is it dangerous?” Hunter asked, scrunching his nose as he sniffed. “Smells weird.”

“Back away...nice and easy…that creature is like a bomb. A really STINKY bomb…” Lynn said, watching as the skunk went from stomping to suddenly up into a headstand.

“Awh! But it's so cute..! It almost looks like Lula!” Wrecker didn't take his eyes away from it as he lowered his hand.

“I would advise you to follow Miss Lynn's directives, Wrecker. Or you may not like the results and Hunter definitely will not.” Tech peeked around Lynn's legs and pushed his goggles up onto the bridge of his nose again.

“I won't either, because otherwise I'm going to have to get a LOT of tomato juice,” Lynn grumbled under her breath. “Just back away, slowly and don't make any sudden moves,” she guided the tallest of the batch.

Wrecker whined but slowly began to back away. “Okay okay, I'm backing up,” he grumbled.

Lynn held her breath as the skunk slowly lowered its back legs, but was flicking its tail in agitation. “Keep coming over buddy. I think we're going to be okay.”

“Great!” Wrecker cried and perked up and spun on his heel, startling the skunk.

“No!”

“OH MY GOD THE SMELL!” Hunter screamed as the skunk turned and sprayed Wrecker.

“God-” Lynn bit back the curse and covered her face as Hunter and Tech ran inside and closed the sliding glass door. She heard the lock click and sighed. “Dammit…”

Wrecker had the decency to look cowed as he covered his nose and mouth, no doubt he had learned his lesson. Lynn had definitely learned hers as well. Always tell children to avoid certain animals before they encounter them.

“Tomato juice time?”

“Tomato juice time.”

i also forgot to post the one-shot i wrote last week in which edelgard accidentally eats hapi's furry skunk tf weed brownie

When Edelgard accidentally eats a pastry laced with magical herbs, it's up to Hapi to guide her through the transformative trials and tribulations of her first high.

Of course, though, it was still utterly ridiculous. She chuckled to herself again. “Magic herbs that turn you into a skunk, how absurd,” she scoffed. “Your little prank is the last thing I need on my mind, Hapi.”

“It’s real, Eddie,” Hapi said. “Just prepping you for it so you don’t freak out when it happens.”

“It’s not going to happen. It’s simply beyond magical science.”

“You’re gonna turn into a skunk.”

“I am not.”

“You are. I do this every month. It happens.”

Edelgard rolled her eyes. “This is a bizarre jape to place on top of my already precocious—no, that’s not the right word—precarious circumstances. Why would Constance transfigure you into some weasel-ish creature from Dagda? When last I asked, everything about that continent terrified her.”

Hapi shrugged. “I got my fears, she’s got hers. But Cas told her his dad kept a pair as pets after the Brigid-Dagda War and she thought they sounded adorable, so she decided to work on changing her mind.”

“By transfiguring you into a skunk once a month.”

“Yes.”

Edelgard sighed. Hapi’s silly little prank was wearing on her nerves. It was very rude for her to do this to her on top of her accidental drugging. “And what do you get out of this?”

“It’s fun.”

“Whatever you say. But if Constance’s transfiguration spell is not some prank, it had better kick in soon—it’s been hours.”

“It’s not even been one, Eddie.”

“An entire evening, and I’ve scarcely even gotten more hirsute. Ha! Just keep telling me that any minute now, I will start growing a snout, and sharp ears, and some manner of tail, and…” Edelgard wrinkled her nose and curled her lip.

She wrinkled her nose again.

Something about it felt wrong.

Pet headcanons? I wanna see that! I wanna see the widdle babies!!!

ENTITY PET HEADCANONS!!!

THAT WAS FAST-

Anyways, I’ve come up with a few scenarios in which hotel pansexuale ™ can have pets, mind you this is au material and may be subject to change and the mercy of updates.

They learn the concept of pet ownership from a book or somethin-???

Au stuff since in the good!ending au I mentioned once they owned chicken and deer- so maybe a few barn kitties Rush scooped up or a kitty Sally + Dupe owns (the fluffy fam are big fans of kibby. So says me.) or even a really soft, fluffy big dog. Soft things..are a gift for them.. the point is that they all share pet

Plus In my main au they raise Racoons that started after a breeding pair moved into the hotel via a hole in the wall, maybe Rush kept a few favorites…

I don’t really see Seek’s family owning that many pets..or atleast they’d try until Screech brings a rat or something home.? I could Seek owning a cat too..Figure? Chickens and ducks and other domestic fowl Definitely. It’d cluck to them to take care of them. Figure is definitely a fowl person.

Hide definitely gets an emotional support/Therapy dog though for comfort.

Maybe Seek owns one of those hairless cats. Like a pretty calico one.

Imagine it softly clucking or mimicking its flock’s noises in order to call them in for dinner.

Greed definitely owned a hamster, it took care of it even though it’s blind…but honestly? That wasn’t its most important possession out of all its hoard.

Depth. Depth was.

Depth probably would’ve wanted an underwater pet like an octopus or a jellyfish. Some critter that occurs naturally in the pool.

Jack? Hm..snakey snake. Reptiles. Mostly Snakes though.

Bushy in some flavor of au got a ferret. Deadass. No explanation.

Halt? Betta. :) Got that sexy sexy big tank for one little pampered Betta with healthy plants and floating algae balls to match.

“Nice Aquascaping!” Ambush says casually. “‘Watcha got in the tank?” “Betta.” Says Halt. “O-only a Betta..?” “Betta.”

Jeff…? Anything soft and snuggly..maybe a rabbit…? Okay, maybe Jeff needs a dog. Give this man a black lab or a golden retriever or..fuck it, even a sweet shelter dog and watch his heart grow. He needs it. He needs it so bad.

Dread owned doves while human which he cared for deeply. He loved the soft coos of mourning doves outside his home.

Gobby? Bug. Fucking pill beetles man. They rock. Let gobby have a little terrarium filled with pill bugs as a treat. Have him give them water via an Eyedropper.

A60 owns one of those little white dogs with brown tear shitstains on their eyes that are always on the very on crying and adores it.

A90 would probably like a turtle. Watching it swim would make it happy and bring its own swimmy instincts into high gear.

Yes, Printer skunk CAN swim btw. Not a literal water monster like Ambush/Sally but ahh..

A-120 would also like a kitten or maybe a lovebird thank you very much. Much to say, it’d probably like any pet.

Curious would probably like a hissing cockroach or maybe a Xoloitzcuintle dog, maybe a canary…Maybe a Pomeranian?? Mmmmmgmgmgmgngh in-decisive it would have a weird mix of pets.

Guiding light would probably like a pond of koi fish or perhaps an owl/falcon..? Something dignified.

Sorry if your sick about hearing about Rafflesia but they used to own a chinchilla when they were human. His name was Petunia. :)

Rue owned goats at some point..but he secretly loved the little quail chicks at the farm when he was young to the point he has occasional dreams about them..Soft..

Scatters this like pellets to my hungry little doors chickens pspssp feed now

How to Control Grubs in Your Yard: Proven Tips for a Healthy Lawn

A lush, green lawn is the pride of any homeowner—but nothing can ruin it faster than a grub infestation. These tiny, white beetle larvae may be small, but they can cause serious damage to your grass roots, leaving behind brown patches and thinning turf. If you're wondering how to control grubs in your yard effectively, you're in the right place. This guide will walk you through what grubs are, how to spot them, and the best methods—both natural and chemical—for getting rid of them and keeping them away for good.

What Are Lawn Grubs?

Lawn grubs, also known as white grubs, are the larval stage of various beetles, including Japanese beetles, June bugs, and European chafers. These pests live underground and feed on the roots of grass, causing sections of your lawn to wilt and die.

Grubs are most active in late summer and early fall, which is when you’re most likely to notice signs of damage. Understanding their life cycle is key to learning how to control grubs in your yard effectively.

Signs of a Grub Infestation

Before you treat for grubs, it's important to confirm they're actually the issue. Here are some telltale signs:

Brown Patches: Irregular dead spots in your lawn that don’t green up even with watering.

Soft or Spongy Turf: Grass feels loose and lifts easily, almost like a carpet, due to root damage.

Increased Wildlife Activity: Birds, raccoons, or skunks digging up your yard may be hunting grubs.

You can also do a quick grub check by cutting out a 1-square-foot section of turf and peeling it back. If you see more than 5–10 grubs, it's time to act.

Best Ways to Control Grubs in Your Yard

There are several effective methods to control grubs in your yard, ranging from organic treatments to chemical applications. The best approach often combines prevention with timely treatment.

1. Use Beneficial Nematodes (Natural Option)

Beneficial nematodes are microscopic worms that hunt and kill grubs without harming your lawn or beneficial insects. They're a great organic solution and can be applied using a sprayer. Apply in late summer when grubs are most active.

2. Apply Milky Spore Disease

Milky spore is a bacterium that targets Japanese beetle grubs. It’s safe for humans and pets and provides long-term protection as it multiplies in the soil. However, it can take a season or two to build up effectiveness.

3. Try a Chemical Grub Killer

If the infestation is severe, a fast-acting chemical grub killer might be necessary. Look for products containing carbaryl or trichlorfon for curative treatment, or imidacloprid for preventive care. Be sure to follow label instructions carefully.

4. Maintain a Healthy Lawn

One of the best long-term strategies to control grubs in your yard is to create an environment that’s resistant to pests:

Mow regularly at the proper height.

Water deeply but infrequently.

Fertilize in spring and fall to encourage deep root growth.

Healthy grass can withstand minor grub damage and recover more quickly.

When to Treat for Grubs

Timing is everything. The most effective time to control grubs in your yard is in late summer or early fall, when the grubs are young and close to the surface. Preventive treatments should be applied in mid to late spring, before beetles lay their eggs.

How to Prevent Future Infestations

Controlling grubs is only part of the solution. Prevention is just as important:

Avoid overwatering, which attracts beetles to lay eggs.

Aerate your lawn annually to improve soil health.

Keep an eye on adult beetle activity in midsummer—it’s a good predictor of potential grub issues later.

Final Thoughts

Grubs may be a hidden threat, but with the right knowledge and tools, you can take back control of your yard. Whether you opt for natural solutions like nematodes or use chemical treatments, acting at the right time is crucial. Pair treatment with consistent lawn care, and you’ll not only control grubs in your yard but also enjoy a lush, vibrant lawn all season long.

The Ultimate Guide to Humane Wildlife Control in Los Angeles

Los Angeles is home to a diverse range of wildlife, from raccoons and squirrels to skunks and opossums. While these animals play an essential role in the local ecosystem, they can become a nuisance when they invade homes and businesses. Wildlife intrusions can lead to property damage, health risks, and stressful situations for property owners. If you’re dealing with unwanted animals on your property, professional wildlife control services can help. This guide will provide an in-depth look at humane wildlife removal, exclusion methods, and prevention strategies to keep your home or business safe.

Why Wildlife Becomes a Problem in Los Angeles

Los Angeles’ urban expansion has led to increased interactions between humans and wildlife. As natural habitats shrink, animals seek shelter and food in residential and commercial properties. Wildlife infestations often occur in attics, crawlspaces, garages, and under decks, where animals can nest and breed. Common issues caused by nuisance wildlife include:

Property Damage: Wildlife can chew through wires, insulation, and wood, leading to costly repairs.

Health Risks: Animal droppings, urine, and nesting materials can carry diseases such as rabies, leptospirosis, and histoplasmosis.

Noise and Odor: Nocturnal animals like raccoons and opossums can cause disturbances, while skunks can create unpleasant odors.

Structural Risks: Burrowing animals like rodents and raccoons can weaken foundations and compromise structural integrity.

Understanding why wildlife seeks shelter in homes is the first step in effective prevention and control.

Humane Wildlife Removal Methods

Wildlife control should always prioritize humane and ethical methods to ensure the safety of both animals and humans. Professional wildlife removal specialists use the following techniques:

1. Live Trapping and Relocation

Live trapping is a common method used to capture and relocate nuisance animals safely. Traps are strategically placed in high-activity areas and checked regularly to ensure animals are not left inside for too long. Once captured, the animals are relocated to a suitable natural habitat away from residential areas.

2. Exclusion Techniques

Exclusion involves sealing off entry points and installing barriers to prevent wildlife from re-entering a property. Some effective exclusion methods include:

Sealing Holes and Gaps: Blocking access points with metal mesh, steel wool, or durable materials prevents animals from entering homes.

Installing Chimney Caps and Vent Covers: Prevents birds, squirrels, and raccoons from nesting in chimneys and vents.

Deck and Porch Barriers: Prevents skunks and opossums from burrowing under decks and sheds.

3. Habitat Modification

Reducing food sources and shelter opportunities makes properties less attractive to wildlife. This includes:

Keeping trash bins sealed with tight-fitting lids.

Removing pet food from outdoor areas.

Trimming tree branches that provide easy roof access for squirrels and raccoons.

Fixing leaks and eliminating standing water to deter rodents.

Common Wildlife Issues in Los Angeles

Several species frequently cause problems for property owners in Los Angeles. Here’s a closer look at the most common nuisance animals and how to handle them.

Raccoons

Raccoons are highly intelligent and adaptable, often breaking into attics, crawlspaces, and garages in search of food and shelter. They can cause significant damage by tearing insulation, chewing wires, and leaving droppings. Live trapping, exclusion barriers, and securing trash bins are effective ways to control raccoon intrusions.

Squirrels

Squirrels often nest in attics, where they can chew through wires and insulation, creating fire hazards. Tree trimming, vent covers, and sealing entry points help prevent squirrel infestations.

Skunks

Skunks are notorious for their foul-smelling spray, which they use as a defense mechanism. They often burrow under decks, sheds, and porches. Installing barriers and using live trapping methods are the best ways to remove skunks safely.

Opossums

Opossums are scavengers that often rummage through garbage cans and seek shelter in crawlspaces. While they are generally harmless, their presence can attract predators. Secure trash bins and close off hiding spots to deter opossums.

Rodents (Rats & Mice)

Rodents reproduce quickly and can cause extensive damage by gnawing on wires, pipes, and wood. They also carry diseases and contaminate food sources. Sealing entry points, using bait stations, and setting traps are essential for rodent control.

Wildlife Damage Repair & Cleanup

Once wildlife has been removed from a property, proper cleanup and repair are necessary to restore safety and hygiene. Wildlife infestations often leave behind:

Urine and feces contamination

Damaged insulation and wiring

Structural damage from burrowing and nesting

Professional wildlife control services offer damage repair and sanitation, including decontaminating affected areas and restoring insulation to prevent energy loss.

Preventative Measures to Keep Wildlife Out

Preventing wildlife from entering your home is the best long-term solution. Here are some proactive steps to take:

Regular Inspections: Check your home’s exterior for signs of wildlife activity, such as gnaw marks, droppings, and entry holes.

Secure Food Sources: Store pet food indoors and use wildlife-proof trash bins.

Maintain Landscaping: Trim overgrown vegetation and trees that provide easy access to roofs and entry points.

Install Motion-Activated Lights and Sprinklers: These can deter nocturnal animals like raccoons and skunks.

Why Hire a Professional Wildlife Control Service?

While DIY wildlife removal methods may seem cost-effective, they can be dangerous and ineffective if not done correctly. Hiring a professional wildlife control service ensures:

Safe and Humane Removal: Experts use ethical methods to trap and relocate animals without causing harm.

Long-Term Solutions: Professionals implement exclusion and prevention strategies to keep wildlife out permanently.

Compliance with Local Laws: Many species are protected under wildlife laws, making it crucial to handle removals legally.

Health and Safety: Professionals have the necessary equipment to handle wildlife safely and clean contaminated areas properly.

Top Tips for Successful Residential Wildlife Removal: Ensuring a Safe Living Environment

Wildlife may be a natural part of the environment, but when animals invade your home, they can create significant problems for homeowners. From squirrels nesting in your attic to raccoons rummaging through your garbage, residential wildlife invasions can lead to property damage, health risks, and sleepless nights.

If you’re facing a wildlife problem, it’s essential to act quickly and effectively to ensure a safe and peaceful living environment. In this article, we’ll share top tips for successful residential wildlife removal, guiding you on how to handle wildlife conflicts and prevent future infestations.

1. Understand the Types of Wildlife Commonly Found in Homes

Before you can effectively remove wildlife from your home, it’s crucial to understand which animals are likely to invade your property. Common wildlife invaders include:

Squirrels: Often seek shelter in attics during colder months. They can chew on electrical wiring and insulation, creating a fire hazard.

Raccoons: Known for rummaging through garbage and entering homes through chimneys, vents, and roof gaps. Raccoons can transmit diseases like rabies.

Bats: These nocturnal creatures are often found in attics or behind eaves. While bats are beneficial for controlling insects, their droppings can spread disease.

Mice and Rats: Rodents are notorious for nesting in walls, basements, and attics. They can contaminate food, damage property, and spread diseases like Hantavirus.

Skunks: These animals are attracted to dark, secluded spaces such as basements or under porches. They can be a nuisance, especially if they spray.

Knowing which animals are likely in your area will help you take the right steps to prevent and manage wildlife intrusions.

2. Act Quickly to Prevent Further Damage

The longer wildlife is allowed to remain in your home, the more damage they can cause. In addition to the physical damage—like chewed wires, insulation, and structural elements—wildlife can also create health risks. Bat droppings, rodent urine, and raccoon feces can carry diseases that are harmful to humans and pets.

If you suspect wildlife has entered your home, take immediate action by:

Inspecting for Entry Points: Check your attic, basement, and roof for possible entry points. Look for gaps, holes, or damaged vents where animals could have gained access.

Securing Food Sources: Keep food sealed tightly in containers, especially pet food or garbage, to avoid attracting wildlife.

Removing Temptations: Remove overgrown plants and tree branches near your home that wildlife can use to access your roof or attic.

3. Use Humane Wildlife Removal Methods

When dealing with residential wildlife removal, it’s crucial to use humane methods that don’t harm the animals involved. Many regions have strict laws protecting certain wildlife species, which is why humane removal practices are not only ethical but also often required by law.

Humane wildlife removal methods include:

Exclusion: The most effective way to remove wildlife from your home is to ensure they can’t re-enter. This involves sealing off entry points, such as cracks, holes, and vents, using materials like wire mesh or caulking.

Live Trapping: For animals that are already inside your home, live traps can be used to safely capture and relocate them. It’s essential to work with a professional who understands the proper techniques for trapping and relocating animals to avoid causing harm.

Eviction Devices: In some cases, eviction devices like one-way doors or tubes are used to allow animals to exit without being able to return. This method works well for animals like bats, squirrels, and raccoons.

Be sure to hire a professional wildlife removal service that understands how to perform humane removals and comply with local wildlife protection laws.

4. Prevent Future Wildlife Invasions

Once you’ve successfully removed wildlife from your home, it’s important to take steps to prevent them from returning. Preventative measures can save you time, money, and stress in the long run.

Here are some effective prevention tips:

Seal Gaps and Cracks: Inspect your home thoroughly and seal any openings around windows, doors, pipes, and vents. Pay particular attention to areas where utilities enter your home, as these are common entry points for wildlife.

Install Animal-Proof Screens: If you have vents, chimneys, or attic openings, install strong wire mesh or animal-proof screens to keep wildlife out while still allowing ventilation.

Trim Trees and Shrubs: Trim back any tree branches or shrubs that are too close to your roofline. Overhanging branches give animals easy access to your attic or roof, so keeping them trimmed back is a great deterrent.

Install Motion-Activated Lights or Sprinklers: Lighting and sprinkler systems that activate when motion is detected can be an effective deterrent for nocturnal animals like raccoons and skunks.

Maintain Your Property: Regularly check for damage to your roof, siding, or foundation. Prompt repairs can prevent wildlife from finding access points into your home.

5. Know When to Call a Professional Wildlife Removal Service

While DIY methods can be effective, there are times when professional help is necessary. Handling wildlife removal can be tricky, especially if the animals are in difficult-to-reach areas or if they pose health risks.

Here are some situations where you should call a professional:

Large or Aggressive Animals: If you're dealing with larger animals like raccoons, coyotes, or skunks, or if the animals are acting aggressively, it’s best to hire a professional. These animals can be dangerous and difficult to handle safely.

Hard-to-Reach Areas: If wildlife has nested in areas that are difficult to access, like behind walls or inside chimneys, a professional wildlife control expert will have the tools and expertise to handle the situation safely.

Health and Safety Concerns: If you suspect the wildlife might carry diseases, or if you’ve been exposed to animal waste, a professional service can ensure that the area is safely cleaned and disinfected, reducing any health risks.

Legal Concerns: In many areas, wildlife is protected by law. Professional wildlife removal services are familiar with local regulations and will ensure that the removal is done legally and ethically.

6. Conclusion

Residential pest removal is essential for maintaining a safe, clean, and comfortable living environment. By understanding the types of wildlife that can invade your home, acting quickly to prevent further damage, using humane removal methods, and implementing effective preventative measures, you can safeguard your home from unwanted wildlife guests.

While some DIY methods may be sufficient for minor problems, for more significant infestations or potential health risks, it’s always wise to call a professional wildlife removal service. With the right approach, you can protect both your property and the wildlife in your area, ensuring a peaceful coexistence for everyone.

Raccoon Removal Guide

Raccoons are fascinating creatures, but they can become a nuisance when they invade our homes or yards. These animals are nocturnal, meaning they are most active at night. They are attracted to food sources, so if you have open garbage cans or pet food left outside, you're likely to draw them in!

Knowing their habits can help in preventing an infestation. Raccoons are excellent climbers and often seek shelter in attics, basements, or under decks. Their dexterity allows them to open containers and doors, making it essential to secure your property.

Signs of a Raccoon Infestation

Recognizing the signs of a raccoon infestation early can save you a lot of trouble. Common indications include overturned garbage cans, raccoon tracks in dirt or mud, and distinctive feces that can often be found near their access points.

Additionally, listen for noises at night, such as scratching or thumping sounds in the attic or walls. If you notice these signs, it’s crucial to take action immediately to avoid further issues. For related concerns, such as skunks, consider professional skunk removal services in Sacramento County.

Tracks resembling human hands

Damaged insulation in attics

Unusual noises at night

Safe and Effective Removal Methods

When it comes to raccoon removal, safety is key. If you notice raccoons on your property, it’s essential to use humane methods. Trapping them can be effective, but it must be done carefully to comply with local wildlife regulations.

You can set up a live trap baited with food such as fruits or pet food. Once caught, release the raccoon in a safe location away from residential areas. Always check your local laws regarding relocation, as it varies by region.

Preventing Future Infestations

Once you have successfully removed raccoons, the next step is to prevent them from returning. Start by securing garbage bins with tight lids and storing pet food indoors. Raccoons are opportunistic feeders, and eliminating food sources will deter them.

Also, inspect your property for any possible entry points. Sealing gaps in roofs, vents, and basements will help keep these clever creatures out. Using motion-activated lights or sprinklers can also scare them away!

Seal all entry points

Use raccoon-proof garbage bins

Remove outdoor food sources

When to Call Professionals

If you’re dealing with a large raccoon population or feel uncomfortable handling the situation yourself, it may be time to call in the professionals. Wildlife removal experts have the knowledge and tools to safely handle and remove raccoons.

These professionals can also provide tips and strategies tailored to your specific situation. They can ensure that the raccoons are removed humanely and that your property is properly secured against future invasions.

Choosing the Right Wildlife Removal Service

LEPTOSPIROSIS IN DOGS

Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease caused by the infection of bacteria belonging to the genus Leptospira. It is most commonly transmitted through mucous membrane contact or wound exposure to urine of infected mammals, or contaminated food, bedding, soil, or water. 

Leptospira like to live in warm, wet environments like damp soil/grass, mud, standing water, and lakes or ponds. Under ideal conditions, the bacteria can survive more than three months outside the body. Rodents and domesticated animals including raccoons, skunks, opossums, rats, cows, and pigs are but a few of the many known carriers. Because of the broad range of carrier species, any dog - even one that is briefly outdoors - may be vulnerable to the disease. 

Each year, more than a million cases of leptospirosis are reported worldwide, with an estimated 59,000 deaths. Leptospirosis continues to be prevalent in dogs, although symptoms may vary depending on the strain of Leptospira bacteria and the dog’s immune system. While some infected dogs may show little to no signs of illness and recover on their own, others may develop severe, life-threatening illness. Most common signs include:

Lethargy

Loss of appetite

Vomiting/diarrhea

Abdominal pain

Jaundice (yellowing of the skin or mucous membranes)

Dehydration

Increased thirst and urination

Weight loss

Stiffness or muscle pain

The disease may progress into acute kidney and/or liver failure. Some dogs may even develop lung disease and rapid, difficulty breathing, damage to the heart muscles, or bleeding disorders that may exhibit through blood-tinged vomit, feces, or urine, nose bleeds, or petechia (red spots or bruising on the gums and other light-skinned areas). Fluid may also build up in the body, causing swollen limbs or excess fluid in the chest or abdomen. 

Because leptospirosis may appear like many other illnesses, it is important to share information about your dog’s lifestyle and travel history that may highlight possible exposure to Leptospira bacteria. While there are various leptospirosis testing available, micro-agglutination tests (MAT) are the gold standard, and additional diagnostics including bloodwork, urinalysis, and ultrasound may also be recommended. 

Leptospirosis is generally treated with antibiotics and supportive care. Patients are often hospitalized to receive fluid therapy, IV medications, nutritional support, and sometimes oxygen therapy and/or plasma transfusions in more severe cases.

Fortunately, there are vaccines available that protect against this life-threatening disease. Vaccinating dogs for leptospirosis may help protect their owners from infection, too. Aside from that, other precautions should be made to reduce risk of exposure:

Avoid letting your dog swim or drink from lakes, rivers, ponds, or any slow-moving or stagnant waters, puddles, or public/shared water bowls

Keep your dog away from farm animals and rodents, including carcasses, and minimize free-roaming in rural or peri-urban areas

Protect your dog’s paws with booties if they have any open wounds or sores

WARNING: If your dog is diagnosed with, or suspected to have leptospirosis, it is important to note that any animals that are not treated completely may shed Leptospira bacteria in their urine for up to three months. Promptly clean and disinfect any urine or contaminated areas within the home, and wear gloves while doing so. Also be mindful in guiding your dog to urinate far away from any areas other people or animals may have access to.

Nuka-Town (Vault 371) 18+ NSFW

Ch.1 Rock & Roll Deathclaw Attack

Up in Northern California along the Lost & Rocky Coast there lies a large vault constructed of hardened steel miles wide and deep containing roughly 2,000 inhabitants. After a random Deathclaw attack unsealed the vault it split the population in half and nearly 1,000 of its inhabitants migrated east headed towards “Happy Camp” where they are settled peacefully now. The Journey was arduous as always, death, disease, nuclear radiation rampant as ever.

 However, thanks to the Chems(chemicals) found by the scavenging parties of this happy little camp up in the hills a golden beacon upon the mountainside shimmering for all to see. Civilization had momentarily returned to the wasteland.. 

 https://5kyeeidtal.bandcamp.com/track/closed-universes-ring-singularities-nobodisoundz-mix

Along the Way a docile young vault girl wanders into an abandoned supermarket where when looking through an old rusty locker filled with radroaches she discovers something. A square Gelatin tablet with a Pac-Man symbol on it . Could it be? LSD? She thought to herself before mindlessly consuming the tab. 

Lady Jasmine BlackMarsh of the Elden Lands an anthropomorphic half cobra half shark hybrid was not born in Vault 371 but raised in it by her parents Nyuu, her father and son of Aranea, a powerful historical  figure who saved their world from the T-virus long ago.  She was a aquamarine colored Cobra with Beautiful orange eyes like lava and hissed to express her happiness at the world and was just generally a blissful creature. Upon leaving the old abandoned supermarket where she had consumed the LSD she headed east for many months following three full moons till she found a settlement known as Megaton. She walked in through the gigantic metal gate made of old scrap. Needing repairs for her Gold plated Uzi she inherited from her Grandparent Aranea when they finally passed 10 years ago. 

 Soon They were inseparable, petting each other all over town and Lady Jasmine's hissing had become almost constant. Jasmine's long half cobra half shark tongue slithered around Morias little clit and got tangled in her ginger pussy every night after that day! Though this heaven would soon turn to hell as mindless raiders attacked their beautiful megaton shack one day! They were saved by attacking super mutants whom they nuked with Morias Fat Man she had been saving behind the counter for this kind of a situation. There they built a new settlement there called “Nuka-Town” a LGBTQ friendly neutral settlement where taxes are paid in cannabis & Nuka Cola is freely dispensed in vending machines to its 8 residents.

 Currently in Nuka-Town(completely unaffiliated with Nuka-World)  there are 4 houses for the 4 families there & they each inhabit one distinct direction each. To the North The Werewolves, to the east the horse 'Egun' and his companion 'Esnei', to the south Lady Jasmine and her human lover Moria Brown author of 'The Wasteland Survival Guide’, and to the west lived Lady Priscilla skunk the honorary Mayor of Nuka-Town and all the other species. Lady skunk was very fussy and this is why they gave her this position to keep her and her delicious smelling juices away from the populus. Together they formed a post-apocalyptic version of a furry-like animal crossing village where weapons and ammo could be traded for items like food and water. One day a casino is constructed where they all have a furry BDSM orgy….until one day it is over-run by the NCR. 

“The wasteland is still hungry, but I am the only  one which can feed it,'' thought 18 year old Jasmine,.She��alone can satisfy its lusty hunger. 

     Ch.2  Call me Judgment

Lady Jasmine BlackMash was with the Werewolves 'BadGirl Buttercup' and 'Problem Pup'  who would harvest souls…I mean…scavenge at night! Holding her .50 Cal upright she kicked the door open to the abandoned chem lab! Gimme all the "Bepis" you got or I’m gonna start shooting!! Bullets were flying everywhere, left and right, diagonally, hexagonally, inside out, inside other dimensions of space and time and across the hall. 

Lady jasmine BlackMarsh had been Shot through the Hood which all Cobras had upon their head. She hissed “SSSSssssSSssSsssssSSSS '' and took cover fearing defeat and even greater injury. She stitched and suitred it right then and there which was pretty “Bad-Ass” if I do say so myself. 

    "A little 50% rubbing Alcohol also never hurts" she thought. It did burn though …she hissed again! Though this could not be avoided for even the daughter of the great Nyuu could not withstand the pain this caused her and the bullet holes were cleansed of anything which could infect them. Lady Jasmine Kyuu BlackMarsh of the Elden Lands was a Freelancer, an ancient disgraced knightly order. As she stared into the distance she began to fall down the dry mountainside unexpectedly( Probably from so much blood loss to her brain). She quickly grabbed her snowboard (hit a chunk of rock with her musket and held on for dear life) and sled down the hill holding her gold plated musket in hand in case of a suprise deathclaw attack while snowboarding down the hill. She loaded it with a shot of Pure SIlver Bullets (not cheap)which could put down anything, they were made by Moria Brown 60 years old currently residing inside Nuka-Town after her old one was destroyed by somebody called the lone wanderer. Sounds kind of crazy to me, but that's the wasteland for yah”.

“Ys-Attan Vrsana Pretesh!!’ BlackMarsh said summoning a Merkabah of light blue which then summoned a seraphim or large angelic being to aid mankind. This spirit appeared around her.

 Spirits from a nearby Vampire Den have been reported roaming on the road by Nuka Town by the local officials *cough* like Lady Priscilla Skunk The Wise always profounding the ancient mantra which I so adore of Wisdom, Emptiness, and Restraint. A perfect Trigram of human knowledge”  *cough* She was the most popular girl at Nuka Town high back in 2100 A.E. which would make her hundreds of years old considering she was born in 2019. So I went with my angel to investigate; when I found a mysterious portal glowing violently purple and made of 24 skulls of humans all missing teeth and had long dreadlocks and beads with gold at the end.

At the end of a Vampire Tomb to another world where I saw another large angel (different than the one I had summoned previously)moving amongst the stars. I came back through the portal and now attempt to unite Nuka-Town, send everyone to a new reality which is non-irradiated and never have to worry about the NRC again!

I went back to the center of Nuka-Town and said to everyone “listen up, this is a conscription I found a portal to another world with a giant Lich in it I literally can’t kill it alone and I need all my friends from Twitter to help me!They called back… ok, but only because the fabric of time and space is literally threatened as we all  have heard the reports of vampires from priscilla Skunk the wise immaculate one too. They all put away their alcohol, smoking, and sex toys temporarily….It took about 2 hours. I did a short role call examining everyone's weapons and magic shortly before this epic battle.

I brought them that night to the Vampire's Tomb where we camped for a moon and trained by slaying vampires which would come to feast upon living flesh. There I found the Demon slayer Egun and their Partner Esnei who was a constant source of emotional support when times got rough. The sealer D’Lee-Doe was in our ranks, with his mighty fist of holiness telling us always about reaching heaven through violence. He was a large seagull person who had trained in the art of sealing away demons with sacred chants and salt. He would pray to Kali daily with his meals as well carrying a one and a half foot statue of her around constantly to pray to it at the appropriate times throughout the day. The local mayor even showed up! That’s right PriscillaSkunk who was traveling all the way from the western most part of Nuka-Town to be there and give the party her sweet tears in a bottle! We would all make offerings of Milk to her and she was fun and goofy to be around like in a Julie Andrews ‘Sound of Music’. She carried around a big pole with over 30 bells on it and was considered the towns priest as this created a wall which no demons could ever hope to pass at whim.  Egun was a very calm and reserved party member as I recall, and Esnei was very joyful and playful, always hugging you. I would give her a spank with a bamboo cane regularly. She didn’t like this much though being a panda she considered it a food fetish, but kept trying to tell her it was more that I just thought it was a great honor to be spanked in my culture however. We got along quite well after this and I learned to show respect to the mistress of “Egun The Demonslayer”.

The Where-wolve shade girls, Bad Girls Buttercup and Problem Pup had been training their shinobi arts when they weren't trying to make new synth music using old junk found in abandoned wreckage from the Arken civilization which remained after the explosion. They wore intricate masks made by gifted artisans to hide their true identity and custom made Katar claws and guillotine axes which could be held by hand and swung viciously decapitating opponents with a single blow before running into the night. 

After one whole month of fighting these walking dust piles(changed for legal purposes) which came from the purple portal with 24 heads with dreads and gold at the end, the time had come to enter the portal where the large angel/ Arch Lich entity came from just one month ago. Even our chanter Priscilla knew their high leveled spells would be of little use against this behemoth collectively or die trying. We formed the power circle right before entering the catacombs, an Ancient Chanter ritual to get everyone excited through their own auras, actually a very scientific process according to Moria. 

Instantly a cold chill possessed us and we all felt as though we were going to die. A golden tomb lay in front of us with a woman engraved up its outside and it opened instantly as we entered through the other side of the portal. The Lich said, welcome travelers, I am darkness, I am death, which do you desire? 

I should have been more prepared. What was I thinking bringing everyone into this?!t was more than risky, insane even! However, we were more than just pawns on a chessboard, we are ICONS! I had been unable to dodge its initial blast of molten green energy dew which emanated from its casket. I limp down to a cloud which could hold me there. I thought quick wait, I can just shoot a chain out of my musket into this Beings abdomen. I shot, and whipped right around him firing 50 cal. bullets from thin air even though my arm had been melted off by the Behemoth I now call him Bethesda for around this beautiful angel lie pools of dead corpses which he would eat. Beings from other dimensions…unfolding pain and agony in every direction.

“Attack the Colossus!” I screamed to my friends, we were more a coalition of Demiurges in the reality before this one, and this was how we were going to break free, we had to keep moving forward or there would be no reality to return to. The being completely teleported out of the room and took this time to heal myself using a strong herbal potion. Meanwhile Lady Priscilla Skunk cast their spell Songweave which blessed our party with the might of the gods themselves at this time, as she rang her beautiful bells in her ladylike dresses with her fancy handmade hats. Though this was not enough as the fire had already taken my arm. This caused Lady Jasmine BlackMarsh of the Elden Lands to walk to the edge of the large room they were in and begin to bandage her arms…saving her from bleeding to death. Luckily she was right handed and it had been her left forearm because she would have been terribly crippled since she was primarily right handed. She soon realized that there wasn’t any way she was gonna get back in this fight after being crippled by the world eater Bethesda. “It was now or never” she thought, picking up her Winchester and firing its hook into the eye of Bethesda! 

I hurtled toward the behemoth at a ferocious speed and before I knew it I had whizzed through the skull of him causing him to collapse as my experimental power armor had propelled me like a bullet into his skull. I almost got stuck but was able to dig out using a Mr. Handy chainsaw which I like to keep on hand in situations like these. I then sawed off the head and we hauled the body through the portal to the other world keeping it open in-case we ever needed to go back and Priscilla skunk was even left there to guard it and Nuka Town Quantum was established there that day! I also felt that I became more than a cobra that day…I became Royalty!” 

Ch.3 Appolexus 

Even though she had obtained all the riches she could ever want in the new “Dark World” some might call it due to its very nature, she was not satisfied and missed the old world with a passion of nostalgia. I decided to make a trip back to find some books at Morias old shack. 

However I found something strange, that everyone who had stayed there was now very old implying that we stayed very young in the dark world, some kind of new immortality I am not aware of. Apparently my grandchildren are now some of the inhabitants and they use this thing called Twitter to communicate by sending terrible memes to each other…idk bro they say sometimes and i don’t even honestly know what this means at all. Now when we return to the light world people believe us to be a traveling caravan of murdering hippies who want to tear down their Pleasantville-esque utopia of racism and inequality which Nuka-Town was never meant to be. So those of us from the original world who disagree with this go and sell Nuka Cola-Quantum illegally in protest to this. After infringing on every copyright law something happens….

Aliens come to Terra and take Lady Jasmine Blackmarsh to a new earth inhabited by zombies.There she learns of her zombie slaying heritage and changes her name to Aesma J. BlackMarsh Princess of the Pistol. A real Dead Eye 80 in her day blessed with the Shinigami Eye  of her ancestor <The Electro-Dragon> which was written on an old lighthouse by the shores of Bastion Poppy territory allowing her to earn this title. Upon returning to earth she starts ranching out in Fort Garland Colorado by Mt. Blanca and Moria live out the rest of their days happy together in a nice little Hobbit Hole they made together on a nice and dry rocky hill.

Baby Skunks as Pets

Baby skunk season is fast approaching. Baby skunks are properly called kittens or kits. Please make sure before you acquire a skunk as a pet you have learned everything you can about these unique animals. You must understand their nature. You can't feed cat food. you certainly can't place a bowl of dog food in front of the skunk. Learn about exotic pets before acquiring one. The exotic pet has very different care requirements.

Housing You cannot cage a skunk - ever. When they are little, it is easier and safer to have them in a confined space. These little ones are not ready to have run of the house. That day will come soon. If you have an extra bedroom, or maybe even use the bathroom as a skunk room. This helps keep him safe from harm and helps with the toilet training process. When you are sitting around reading, or watching TV, you can keep an eye on him or, let him roam around the house. Eventually, you will let the skunk have total access to most of the house.

Skunks can be very destructive; they can scratch up your carpeting and tear it to shreds. You can never, ever declaw a skunk. Their claws are used as fingers and toes. It would be cruel. How would you feel if you didn't have your fingers or toes? Scratching and digging is the nature of the skunk. Are you sure, you want a domestic skunk?

Skunk Proofing Your Home Skunks can escape out of the smallest places. I am not sure how they do it, but they can flatten out to the depth of a carpet and scoot under many things, like doors. They have a strong sense of curiosity and once out, they will sniff and investigate right into totally lost. The skunk is de-scented (scent glands removed) when you purchased him and has no way of protecting himself. Make sure there is no way for him to get outside your home. Check out dryer vents, heat vents, pet doors, there are numerous ways for a little skunk to get out. It is extremely rare that a lost skunk is ever found. Be sure to have your skunk microchipped and wearing visible identification.

Other things you need to do to skunk proof your home is to put childproof latches on all the cupboards that could contain dangerous materials or things you do not want the skunk to get into. Skunks love to dig, keep the potted plants out of reach. Look around at your low tables. Skunks front feet are very much like hands, they have quite the reach on them and can pull things down from tables and can become injured.

Bedding Material Give them soft, cuddly materials for bedding. Give him an article of clothing that you have worn with your scent on it. It will help the bonding process and assure him when he is alone. Good bedding materials are old towels, old sheets, blankets, and even old articles of clothing. Just give him the bedding. Skunks are talented and like to make their own beds. It is a great deal of fun watching them arrange their bedding. A skunk "carrying" a blanket is hilarious. They pull the blanket backward with their front paws.

Diet Make sure the skunk has plenty of fresh, filtered water available to him at all times. Skunks need a very nutritious diet. Feed high-quality protein from insects, lean meats, dairy products, fresh, cooked, and raw vegetables that are washed, the same with fruits, and greens, cooked eggs, cooked grains, and vitamin and mineral supplements. Even natural high-quality dog food such as Nutro. Poor diet can lead to many problems for example obesity, seizures (low blood sugar ect.), fur loss, hormone imbalance, just to name a few.

Spay or Neutering Skunks are very aggressive and vicious if they are not spayed or neutered. Neuter little male skunks as early as possible, when you first feel their testicles start to develop. This can happen as early as 3 months. Little female skunks need to be spayed no later than four months. If they start reaching sexual maturity, they can begin to bite and be quite vicious. A while after surgery their previous personalities will most likely return to normal.

Health When you choose a veterinarian for your skunk be very picky. Find out what his or her policy is if the skunk should bite someone. Make sure the vet has an updated education in skunks In fact, ask the vet if a skunk always carries rabies. If the answer is yes, run the other way - quick! Skunks do not carry rabies. They can contract rabies just like any other mammal by eating an infected carcass, by being bitten, or other means of transmission.

Many skunks have roundworms. You should have them tested for all worms. Skunks should be wormed for roundworms regularly. Get a wormer recommendation or prescription from your vet.

Skunks require vaccinations both canine and feline shots are an absolute must! The skunks should receive his first set at four weeks of age. Make sure the vet is using a killed virus. They will receive a set of baby shots and then a booster shot once a year.

Do not ever declaw a skunk. Skunks claws are his fingers. This is how he holds his food and eats. Think about if you had, your fingers removed how you would feel. Declawing a skunk is animal abuse, plain and simple.

Skunks can make great pets for some people. Learn all you can about pet skunks before acquiring a pet skunk. Please refer to my Exotic Pet Guide available below.
