Re: lucked out against the skunk
[ QUOTE ]
edit: we used to always take the juice with us hunting because no way were we letting her in the truck smelling like that. [/ QUOTE ] Yeah my dog got sprayed once and what did it do? It ran inside and wiped itself off all over my bed! Greeeeeaatttttt... He is a Yorkie and has a puppy cut, so we washed him up and he only stunk for a few days.

Re: lucked out against the skunk
[ QUOTE ]
You don;t hear too much about skunks over here. I take it being sprayed is really, really bad. But like how bad? I need stories. [/ QUOTE ] I cant imagine what actually getting sprayed would be like. But I've had dozens of encounters of being really really close to where it sprayed. The smell is so awful it has made me throw up before. It also sticks around what seems like FOREVER. My dog got sprayed so many times we finally quit washing her with tomotoe juice when it happened, cuz it was to much effort. She would smell horrible for 3 or 4 days. And then the rare times she managed to avoid a skunk for a couple weeks, if it rained, she would stink all over again. IF we left the windows open at night, and a skunk sprayed, it would wake you up from your sleep. The whole house would stink, and the clothes in your closet would smell like skunk when you wore them out the next day. Its truly awful stuff

Re: lucked out against the skunk
when i was a kid and trapped i would get sprayed frequently. no big deal. just throw out the clothes and shower real good and stink for a few days.
the secret when you run over one in your car or pass by one dead is to close your windows as soon as you see it. then immediately past it, open them up to get that air out.

I love the smell of skunk.... [/ QUOTE ] I like it too, but getting sprayed directly would not be good. I also would not like to be doused with an entire bottle of my favorite cologne or perfume.

Tomato juice works as good as anything [/ QUOTE ] It turns out that there's a better option: hydrogen peroxide, baking soda and soap. Read this page .. he did some research, published it in Chemical and Engineering News a while ago and then put some stuff up on the web. This was very nice to have last year when we trapped 11 (yes, 11) skunks under our house.

Re: lucked out against the skunk
great for your pet but hydrogen peroxide also bleaches everything, like your hair and stuff. so watch out. what you see on the internet isnt always good for you even if its effective.

I love the smell of skunk.... [/ QUOTE ] As it happens, whatever wiring is required to do this, I don't have. I can smell plenty of other things, good and bad, but have never smelled skunk. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] I'm not curious enough to go to the hunting supplies and sniff the skunk scent, so I guess I'll have to go without.
