"Oh I stuck my head in a little skunk's hole..."

"...and the little skunk said 'well bless my soul!',

take it out, take it out, take it out, take it out, remove it!"

Well, I didn't remove it and the little skunk said,

'Take it out, take it out or you'll wish you had,

take it out, take it out, take it out, take it out, remove it!'

Pshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I removed it too late!"

That was one of my favorite childhood songs...but now we have a real skunk problem. We've had an infestation of ground hogs lately which have been the cause of many plants in our garden disappearing. So, in order to protect our little (or rather large) garden we have set out some traps in hopes of catching those little pests...but, this is the last thing we wanted to catch. Luckily it hasn't sprayed yet, but I'm just bracing myself since it's right next to our house. The moral of this story is...close the trap at night.
