I’ve been notified by Houlton’s ACO that with spring here, so too is the invasion from numerous skunks. ACO Upton stated that last year he had handled over 30 skunk complaints, and with the good weather this year, he has handled four already.
ACO Upton said that one way to reduce the number of skunks in your backyard is to use grub killer chemicals. Grubs are a main source of food for Skunks and if you get rid of the food, there will be less skunks around.
Please help us to help you! If you have any question about animals, call Houlton Police at 532-2287, and ask to speak with ACO Kevin Upton.
