Location: Near Yonge St & Finch Ave, North York, ON
Our team was called to a residence in North York after the homeowners noticed signs of skunk activity under their backyard deck. The technician arrived on site and conducted a thorough inspection. He quickly located the entry point where the skunk had been accessing the space beneath the deck.
Humane Eviction Process:
To ensure a safe and humane skunk removal, a one-way door was installed at the identified entry point. This device allows the skunk to exit freely but prevents it from returning — a key part of our wildlife control strategy.
Exclusion Work:
To permanently secure the area and prevent future intrusions, the technician installed galvanized steel wire mesh around the entire perimeter of the deck. The process included:
-
Digging a trench around the deck.
-
Installing the screening, bending it outwards in an “L” shape to deter digging.
-
Securing the mesh to the wooden structure with washers and screws.
-
Refilling the soil and leveling it neatly.
The finished result was clean, professional, and effective.
Outcome:
✅ Skunk removed humanely
✅ Area secured against future wildlife entry
✅ Customer highly satisfied with the workmanship and results
