Skunks are mostly nocturnal critters which habituate all of IL. They are primarily found out and about all year round, but in weather below 30 degrees, skunks will den up to escape the cold.

Porches, stoops, sheds, and decks serve as home for these critters. This brings skunks into contact with family pets, which can be sprayed when crossing paths with skunks.

Skunks are the #1 carriers of rabies and distemper in the U.S. These diseases can be transmitted to pets and people through the presence of skunks in and around buildings and structures.
