Top Skunk Removal Near Ashburn

We had seen and smelled a skunk near our front porch and there were signs of something larger than a chipmunk digging under our portch. The team came by to talk with us, set the trap and they were helpful, friendly and professional. They came back each weekday to check the trap and when we caught a skunk, they came quickly to remove it. The trap was left on the weekend but not set. Results were good and no skunks have been back.

I have used Connors for over 20 years and have never rarely had any bugs inside my home with quarterly outdoor treatments. The skunk issue was resolved by them trapping are releasing the skunks at another location and then building barriers below my foundations. That resolved the issue.

I can't say enough great things about Morgan and Patrick. Not only did their bid come in 75% LESS than the next highest, it was without a doubt the most efficient and professional. Every concern I had was addressed (they even dropped off odor bags to clear out remnants of odor from the basement) and they back up their service with a 6 month guarantee on the skunk removal and a 5 year guarantee on the fencing. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again - just an all around great company with great employees!

They were outstanding from the start. We discussed what was going on over the phone, and after coming out to look the situation over, we decided it was probably a groundhog (possibly a fox as I had seen some recently). A trap was set and the catching began! We (they) got a skunk, a opossum, another skunk, and finally a groundhog. I let the opossum go as they're not relocated (euthanized), but the rest were relocated. FYI, groundhogs are pretty friendly - I fed him while we were waiting for his pickup (it was the weekend). I was not charged extra for the skunks, even though they do cost more if that's thought to be your issue (understandably). I really want to express this - a real friendly HONEST bunch. Helped renew my faith in people.

We had no idea what was digging under our front steps but our front pavers were sinking and nothing my husband tried was working. We called Veteran Pest & Wildlife and they set up a humane trap in our bushes. The first skunk was a surprise and he got it to his truck without it spraying. He said there maybe another skunk and he got the second one to his truck without it spraying too. The opossum he called opportunistic because it probably just went in the empty skunk nest. It took about a week to catch everything. These guys were worth every penny.

I have used Morgan and his team at Veteran Pest and Wildlife for over 7 years. They are the most knowledgeable when it comes to just about everything to do with pest control. Morgan is also very knowledgeable on treatments and alternatives that consider pets and children. They have consistently taken care of just about every pest problem one could experience both in your own home and in a rental property we have. We have experienced nothing but professionalism and timeliness, and good prices too (we’ve checked). We would recommend them 100 times over.

So initially I had suspected there was a skunk living under our front porch since a few weeks back there was the tell tail smell of skunk spray that had permeated in our house. We had noticed signs of an animal digging in our front yard and around the corner of the porch. My husband had filled in the hole and the rocks and dirt got promptly removed by the critter. The skunk spray I couldn't deal with. After getting another estimate I called Morgan and they were able to send someone out the same day and the estimate was much lower for the scope of work. Well after nearly a week, the trap door was closed. My husband called Morgan on a Sunday and they did send someone out to take the trap and set up a new one. Lo and behold it wasn't a skunk but instead we found out later it was a 25 lb raccoon. Clearly the raccoon was eating good in our neighborhood and nesting out under the porch. That would have explained the remove of the end of our downspout over the summer. Next up they're going to back fill the hole and see if there's more activity for the next couple of weeks. They also provided recommendations on keeping critters out so we'll likely have them come out to do that work too. But I'm somewhat relieved there wasn't a skunk living under our porch.

We never did catch it. Perhaps I gave up too soon. The critter wasn't taking the bait, and may just have been a chipmunk. It's still there, but not creating a problem. So, at least it's not a fox, skunk, groundhog, or other real pest.

Fanatic Pest Control came out and set a trap where the hole was under our gazebo to catch the gopher or groundhog and all we managed to catch were squirrels. They came back and set another trap on the opposite side of the gazebo so now we had two of them. We purchaed apple after apple as bait and still all we caught were squirrels. One time we caught a skunk and we had to hire another company to come and get it because Fanatic would not do it. It's been over a year and we still have one of their traps in our backyard as well as the gopher or groundhog.
