What poison is effective in killing skunks?

Answer 1

Antifreeze, it's sweet and 1/4 teaspoon will kill a dog, so be careful. Add fish oil to it, or and egg, even peanut butter. Anything with strong smell. Best poison around.

However, because poison is so dangerous, better to get a covered wire trap, bait with peanut butter on bread, stick to back of cage to make sure skunk trips trap. Drown in big rubbermaid storage container. Drowned 5 this week, no smell. Traps let you release other animals, just be careful releasing raccoons, they can be mean. Use a coat hanger to keep door open.

I was told that you need to use the "old style" antifreeze that contains ethelyne glycol (green). There is apparently some new stuff that will not work.

Someone suggested add dogfood to the antifreeze. Also, be sure the container is secure cause the critter will tip it over otherwise. That happened to me. will update once results are in.

Can anyone update this answer with an approximate "kill time" after consumption?
