From the site:

 

"They are famous for expelling a strong musk oil from two glands, one each side of their anus. They only do this under extreme provocation, such as when attacked by a dog, or run over with a car. This scent is discharged as either droplets or as an atomised spray and aimed at the victims eyes from a distance of up to three meters. The smell is like a mixture of very strong onion and garlic, and not that unpleasant. This musk oil is nearly impossible to get rid of by washing. In America you often hear that it can be removed with tomato ketchup. but in our experience, only neat bleach works! However, it is not the smell that you have to worry about, that is just a warning. The fluid on contact with the skin, gives a severe burning feeling, and if it reaches the eyes, blinds for up to fifteen minutes. This is why skunked dogs scream and run off, nothing to do with the smell. The smell can travel up to two and a half kilometres downwind and stick to things for many years."

 

The smell is absolutely miserable, as opposed to "not that unpleasant"!! LOL If a couple of those scented versions got loose, you fellas would start seeing dogs die to ground as well..... :thumbdown:

 

Now the raccoons on the other hand......
