Default Skunk Instant-kill Set?

I have a skunk problem and want to use conibear sets but there are also dogs in the area that i don't want to harm, what would be a good cubby set that will only allow skunks to enter? any plans or diagrams i can use?

Thanks

The classic dead fall with a restricted path of entry , or a common wire snare set up the same way will solve the problem .

What ever you go with, make sure its legal. Many states have restrictions on the use of dead falls, spring poles, bodygrippers and snares, and those that allow snares often require deer stops or BADs. If allowed, I'd go with a sanre set up for entanglement. If you have to have a deer stop, it likely won't put the skunk down.

Yep if you shoot it you will suddenly get bad odor. That's why I wait till it runs out far enough to blast it with my 12 ga.

Using a turkey choke will buy you another 5-10 yards .

Do you think that even with a brain shot from the 22 you would still get the scent released? This is an interesting topic that I don't want to try first hand lol.
