So I conducted a night op this evening and dispatched a nuisance skunk. Trouble is he ran between two walls in my barn. He's dead as a hammer, but I need to extract him. My question to the OB is, can he still spray me. He sprayed all over after I shot him, but I don't want to get hosed dragging him out of the crawl space. What do you guys suggest?

Fire, just burn it down. It won't get rid of the smell, but he won't spray you, either..Problem solved..

he can't spray you like he could when he was alive...but if you inadvertently apply pressure around his arse, a little skunk juice might dribble out...

happened to me when I was young...one little drop ran down my arm and mom was mad at me for a month...

Dig a hole and bury that stinky fricker. Just don't get near the arse glands.

No, he can't "spray" you. Grab it with a plastic bag of something, not bare hand.

Guess I'll hook him with a gaf, drag him out and stuff him in a garbage bag. I was worried he'd have some postmortem reflex and actually spray. If it's just "leaks" I can negotiate that.

Can only spray you if it is the dreaded Zombie Skunk (not to be confused with the more congenial Jesus Skunk, which is much nicer when it arises from the dead).

Good luck

How does one inadvertently apply pressure?

Zombie skunk?

Otherwise, no.

That has happened to me. I use a post hole digger to grab him. Then I put my hand in a tag bag, grab him and flip the bag over him.

Burying him is a good idea. I often drive through rural areas for work, so I typically sling him out of the bag and into the weeds on the side of a road.
