This lady has a skunk under her home I am sure. She never sees it though.
The smell in the home is strong. She would like to kill the smell in the home.
I mentioned about using the peroxide/baking soda/detergent sprayed in the return ducts.
I don't know of anything else strong enough to clear the air.
I will get the skunk as soon as they start moving. It was warm now single digits.
Any suggestions?

Pulled a dead skunk out of the side of a mobile home once. It was mummified but still had a good skunk smell to it. I had the owner peel back some of the siding, boy did he jump. Every time the furnace came on it smelled like skunk. It is very hard to get a dead skunk into a live trap. I always suspect dead skunks when the smell is pretty strong and no luck trapping. But, weather may be a factor.

My 2 cents is to set multiple traps now. Skunks are moving here even with this cold. Tracks in the snow, or active crawl-unders will be your guide. Don't be surprised if there is a den under there with several occupants. The perimeter will have to be fenced afterward to prevent more problems. What sgs said.

Toss a few moth balls under house. Ironically the skunks and all other critters can't stand the smell That's pretty ironic!

I sure hope the moth ball suggestion was tongue in cheek. Toxic to humans, illegal and ineffective.
