Ok, One summer I got a call from a Neighbor that there was a skunk around their house and wanted me to shoot it (they knew I have a pellet gun, an RWS Diana model 45 .177 adult air rifle, man this thing looks like a deer rifle).

Any way I went down the street and found it sniffing around one of the air vents for under their house. I watched it and it wandered off toward some trees. At about 27 paced yards I popped it but didn't kill it. I got it at the base of the skull and killed all control over everything south of it's front legs. Well it kept crawling using the front legs so I got within 10 yards and popped it again between the eyes, lights out (never did spray). Well I told the city and they said that several folks in our area of town had reported seeing them and that I could shoot all them I could find.

Word got out that I could shoot them and by the time summer was over I had killed 9 of them(I think) total and the city had shot 6. I only had one spray but it wasn't a full load and you could hardly smell it at all.

All total I guess I have killed about a dozen of them in our little area of town and the last one was I THINK two years ago,but it might have been just last summer. So now if anyone sees one they call us.
