Why Skunk Control Is a Particular Issue in Port Moody
Rocky Point Park's edges and the Burrard Inlet shoreline sustain Port Moody's skunk population year-round. These corridor habitats provide the foraging resources and movement routes that bring skunks into Pleasantside and Murray Hill residential in spring when females seek denning locations. The inlet's mild maritime climate means denning begins in late February to early March.
Pleasantside and College Park's older 1960s to 1980s homes with original open-base deck construction are the most common skunk den sites in Port Moody. These decks without solid skirt boards provide exactly the sheltered, ground-level access females seek.
