Drift fencing, as pictured, is common for armadillos, incredibly effective and efficient, so why not use the same method for other critters like grubbing skunks? When skunks dig for high protein grubs it’s sometimes difficult to entice them with baits, about like putting a hotdog next to a guy eating filet mignon. Though many yards are fenced, leaving dig-outs and a great places for double door cage traps as animals crawl under fences, some yards are wide open. Skunks often live under porches or out buildings etc., again providing super den or positive sets with double door cage traps to take skunks coming or going, but again, these sets are not always available. In the absence of trail or den sets with grubbing skunks, drift fencing will limit the skunks access to prime “hunting” areas while funneling skunks into waiting double door traps. In this case, with a large open yard, the fence was placed over the center of the property with funneled traps at each end and a little bait just as an added plus. The first two nights without the fence did not take the single skunk doing the damage, a lot of damage. First night with the fence, bingo.
