Get Rid of Skunks Safely

We love hearing your stories! Last week we met with a customer who was really excited to share a unique lighting application with us. One summer night, Tom heard a ruckus on his front porch. When he went to investigate, he found a family of skunks--at least thirteen of them--carousing near his front door. After some flailing and shooing (on Tom's part), the crowd finally dispersed, in no apparent hurry. Tom followed the critters from a safe distance to see them finally squeeze under his back deck.

Googling for advice, Tom found the consensus to safely and quietly discourage the furry squatters is to position a light on their front door. Tom's "a ha!" moment was remembering that Mr Beams offers motion detection lighting. Carefully, Tom angled a couple of Spotlights on the hole under his deck. Whenever one of the skunks passed in front of the fixture, 120 lumens of light sprang into action. Within a couple of days, Tom's property was skunk-free.

Congratulations, Tom, for your quick-thinking, rodent-ridding solution. We loved it.
