How do you get rid of skunks?

[Rockymtnx]

Lately I have had a problem with skunks in my yard. I have managed to shoot two of them but I know there is more.
I am looking for any suggestions as how to get rid of the rest of them.

There was another thread here not long ago about the same thing.

I have found - from experience - that if you scatter camphor (mothballs) around the area the skunks will leave immediately. As long as you don't mind if they go over to your neighbor's house then no problem.

I will pick up a couple boxes at lunch time. Hopefully this does the trick.

My Dad's Springer Spaniel caught a skunk underneath the deck and killed it... What a mess! I don't know how many times I puked, washing the stink off the dog.

Mothballs work... You can also trap them in a Havahart and drown em in the river.

being a beekeeper skunks have been my enemy for years
the best way to get rid of then is to inject an egg with poison and leave it for the skunks
