The District provides inspections and advice to reduce the likelihood that humans come in contact with skunks because they are a vector of rabies. Upon the first visit, the technician will inspect the property to determine if a skunk has taken up residence.

To request a skunk inspection, call 925-771-6186 or request service online.

If you smell a skunk, see a skunk passing through the yard or your pet has been sprayed by a skunk while on your property, please note these occurrences alone do not meet the District's criteria and District employees will not trap nor remove a skunk from your property.
