How should you remove a dead skunk from your yard?
Use a small trap just big enough for the skunk to get in. It MUST be small enough to prevent the skunk from lifting it's tail. The skunk can't spray if it can't lift it's tail. Once the skunk is trapped he may be safely relocated. To release the skunk simply place the trap on the ground and open the door. I know that sounds scary but the skunk will nonchalantly walk out and away.

How do you transfer and release a skunk from a cage trap without being sprayed?
If you have a vet who is willing he/she can trank the skunk from a distance. If not, you can cover the trap with a few towels or cloths. Place it on the trap with a long rod. Move slowly and speak in a soft voice while doing this. Talking constantly but quietly will calm the animal. Once the cloth is over one end of the trap, stop for a moment and walk away for a while. When you come back, the skunk may be hiding in that end of the trap. Talk again as you come closer. Place another cloth over the other end of the trap, again using the long rod. Once the trap is covered you can move it without to much trouble if you remember to always talk as you are approaching and moving the trap. Use gloves while moving the trap so it cannot bite you. Use cloth that you can throw away in the event of the skunk spraying within the trap. If you don't startle it, however, it will not spray. Skunks have very bad eyesight and can be surprised when you are close if you don't talk to let it know where you are. You have a much greater chance of getting sprayed if you surprise it. If the skunk is repeatedly stamping, walk away for awhile and let it calm down. Skunks are really very mellow little animals and will allow you surprisingly close if you take care to present yourself as harmless. To remove it from the trap you must kill it, using a rifle and shooting the skunk works. if you attempt to free it, it will spray you as it is leaving the trap. Skunks are pests and sometimes moretimes than not erradication is often a good thing.
