Skunk Control Ashland KY

Skunks are one of the most popular species of wildlife that we are called upon to control in Ashland. Skunks can be found living in crawlspaces, under front and rear porch and patio and basements in homes and businesses throughout Ashland and nearby cities in Kentucky. They also take up residence under sheds, in hot tubs and outbuildings. A shed is normally elevated off the ground and is perfect for raising a family. If there is shelter they will seek it!
