I have a concrete slab next to the garage for RV parking or whatever, and I noticed last week that critters had dug a little bit of a hole between the corner of that slab and the block wall that butts up against it.
Don't like that. It wasn't a very big hole, maybe two fists wide. I was figuring ground squirrel maybe.
So I pull out a partial bag of concrete mix I had in the garage left over from an old job and mix it up real wet, almost like slurry and the pour it down the hole to support the slab from being undercut and seal it up.
A few hours later I smelled it, skunk. Evidently one of them things was down in that hole and got sealed up and was making not-nice with the stink.
Bummer, but nothing I could do about it.
Over a week later, it still stinks to high heaven on that side of the garage all the way out to the sidewalk just like if a car ran over a skunk in the road.
I was planning to just wait for it to go away but it doesn't seem to be dissipating.
I was hoping it wouldn't take this long to go way but I have no idea how long dead skunks stink for.
Now I'm thinking about trying to seal up the cracks/joints between the concrete parts to knock down that smell.
Luckily it's on the furthest part of the lot from the house but the wife is not pleased about how it tends to waft when she opens the windows.
If anyone wants to come over and take a good whiff, we gots plenty to go around
It's right about thar ....
