Considera

I want all these skunks to stop going in my back yard at night and tearing it up looking for (and finding and eating) my precious earthworms.

Do I just dust the ashes on my back yard?

Thank you.

Did you just spread the ashes?

I ashed a skunk I caught (we have skunk problems here).

I want to keep the skunks out of my back yard, as they keep digging around and eating my earthworms.

Do I just mix the ash into the soil?
