Why Skunk Control Is a Particular Issue in New Westminster
The Fraser River waterfront parks and Queen's Park urban forest sustain New Westminster's skunk population. These wildlife habitat areas adjacent to Queens Park residential produce the spring denning pressure that brings skunks under original Victorian and Edwardian deck structures in late February and early March.
Queens Park heritage homes from the 1890s to 1920s have original open-base deck and porch construction that may be a century old — the undisturbed, dark, sheltered quality of these original structures makes them among the most attractive skunk den sites in Metro Vancouver.
