Skunk Smell Removal - Dos and Don'ts
Odor RemovalIf a pet, person, or valuable object has just been sprayed by a skunk, the chances are that you're not going to make the best decisions to aid skunk smell removal. Here's a quick list of things to do to make sure the skunk smell removal process goes quickly and painlessly.
Don't let the sprayed person or pet touch anything. Skunk spray is an oily liquid and will easily spread to anything that it touches. So whatever the pet or person touches will also need to be cleaned.
Do try removing the skunk odor outside if possible. This will keep your house clean and the fresh air will help to make the odor not as concentrated.
Don't bring your pet inside because they will immediately try to shake the wetness off themselves and will begin to rub against beds, walls, carpets, and anything else to get the odor off.
Don't bring a person inside fully clothed. If you absolutely have to bring a person inside, have them remove the clothing that was sprayed and completely wrap the person in an old towel or blanket (that you will throw away). Once inside don't let them touch anything (take them directly to the bathroom).
Don't take a bath or a shower. Skunk spray will not wash off. If you take a bath or a shower you will smear and spread the skunk spray across other portions of your body.
Once you complete the above steps you will be able to administer the appropriate skunk smell removal recipe to completely eliminate the skunk odor. Since the exact recipe varies based on your situation I recommend trying a proven skunk smell removal recipe that you can make at home from the internet.
