I would be surprised if it was the only one.

Nice trap KFhunter, I purchased 4 of the PVC skunk traps last year and love them!!  Nice and compact little traps that keeps them from spraying.

I think he's referring to the traps that are sold by the Fur Harvester's Trading Post.  You can order them online at www.fntpost.com

machias you were right, it had a friend. Caught up with the friend last night, it made it over to the neighbors field before I caught up with it. but a well place pellet from my sons 22cal Benjamin trail xp took care of that, and the best part is the stank is at their place  :chuckle: hope the druggies enjoy the smell. two victories in one.

I don't have any 1st hand experience with the PVC tube type traps - but I imagine they would work great.
 
The trap I posted a pic of is a "critter getter" it is made with galvanized tin sheet metal and works well.  Only thing I could complain about is you gotta keep the door slides and whatnot in pretty good shape.  I wouldnt imagine it'd do well on a commercial bang around the back of the truck with 30 other traps.  for a home owner it is very good and will trap a ton of skunks and you won't get squirted.  I really like the garden hose hole at the bottom I tip the trap up on its end "door side up" and just fill it up and leave the hose run a good while then open the door and dump out the contents.
 
my trap has a lot of skunks to its credit over a 10 year period.   The trap was purchased at the local feed lot store - not sure if it is online.

My dog found a skunk in my yard today  :chuckle:
 
lucky I heard the skunk stamping its feet so I knew it wasn't just a chipmunk and got the dog away.
 
I got a trail camera not being used, maybe I'll do a little vid and such of traping this skunk, should be fun huh?

No details as of yet,  I got a pile of old lumber behind a garden tool shed and the dog was sniffing around in there then got all excited like she was birdy.  I thought well there probably was a chipmunk in there until I heard the stamping of the skunks feet.
 
I was like oh crap, and quickly got the dog away before all hell broke loose.  I carefully peeked in the hole and seen the skunks head and it was lunging forward and stamping its feet. 
 
So I got the wife picking up marshmallows tonight and I'll get the game camera out and set it to video and see if we can watch the skunk get trapped  :tup:
