Too much! Everyone thinks they have the stinkyest Skunk oil in the world and it's worth a bloody fortune!

I'd say with inflation we should shoot for $35....
But most gets moved at $20 to 25.

$20 all day long if it too high collect it yourself and see how it goes. LOL

I use it for a deer hunting cover scent. I fill two clean, small peanut butter jars with lint collected from our clothes dryer. I squirt some skunk essence in each jar. The cover stays on until hunting season. I put one in each corner of my blind. Each jar lasts many seasons without having to refill them.

This year I had a 6 pointer walk right under my deer stand. It seems to really mask human scent.

$20 seems really reasonable considering the price of castor which is much easier to collect.


Have you ever listened to someone for quite a while and wondered...."Who ties your shoelaces for you?"

This takes a lot more then people think collecting the stuff, storing it and the impact it has on everything it touches. Then you should have it bottled like the buyer wants it and deal with some evaporation or a lot over time if your holding it for a longtime.

I've bought a lot over the years on the this site on the Trap Shed. Lately averaging about $20.00 oz There was was a time I produced a lot, now I produce a little and buy most. Glad to see trappers get more for glands now. Wish the same would happen to fur prices.
