I had a lady watching me clean fish out in my shop the other day—she noticed my jab stick and asked what it was. I explained that the foreshots off my whiskey still is mostly acetone—or you could use women’s fingernail polish remover too. You fill up this little hypodermic needle on the end of it and you jab a skunk in a live trap right behind the front leg with it. She actually asked me what’s it do to ‘em. I told it tranquilizer them so good they wont spray and then they can be relocated out in the bush where they can spend their lives happy and contented. She looked at me real funny like—i told her the truth—it works on bears too.
