Back in the day, when we put out garbage out in green plastic bags, we had trouble with skunks getting into the bags. Someone suggested a capful of ammonia in the bag before closing it might help. It did. Maybe if you try putting some of that around the compost pile?Citrus essential oil around the base of the compost bin didn't work - in fact, the skunk dug even more than before
Yes, I'm looking for some ammonia - should be a bit in this house somewhere...plus, I do know that mothballs did nothing to repel the skunksBack in the day, when we put out garbage out in green plastic bags, we had trouble with skunks getting into the bags.

There have been skunks spraying around this end of the block all day - which means something is setting them off and that there is more than just the one digging in my compost bin.
Haven't heard any coyotes over in the school grounds...dogs and cats are on the loose at various times - more cats than dogs.Any dogs or cats running loose? Or natural predators like coyotes?
