DIY Skunk Spray Treatment

DIY Skunk Spray Treatment
October 8, 2020

Getting sprayed by a skunk quite literally stinks. 

Use this recipe to create a DIY skunk spray treatment at home:

• 1 quart 3% hydrogen peroxide
• ¼ cup baking soda
• 1 teaspoonful of Dawn dishwashing liquid

Because gas is generated once the hydrogen peroxide and baking soda are mixed, the solution must be made up fresh each time it is needed. The soap breaks up the oils in the skunk spray and allows the other ingredients to do their work. Make sure to rinse the solution off with tap water after.
