Wanda cracks me up standing waaaaay back filming Danny says “this is bad, really bad”. Wanda giggles and say “all in a day’s work”. 😜😜. Well played Wanda!
I chop celery fine, dehydrate it, chop it again and use it like you would use basil, oregano or parsley. It’s great sprinkled on everything from vegetables to gravy, sauces and meats. It also gives a great flavor to my homemade canned broths. Shalom
Several years ago, I spilled about a pint of gasoline in the back of my Jeep…even after I soaked up as much as I could with newspaper, etc., the odor was so unbearable that I couldn’t drive without all the windows down…until I decided to drench the carpet with OdoBan. It worked like a charm within 24 hours and to this day the Jeep smells great!
I don't live on a homestead, but this week I had to fight another nest of about 30 huge red wasp, a toilet that over flowed, and central A/C that the drain clogged up again. Starting my 70th year has been a hard one.
Years ago I was walking down the road with my Dad’s dog. He ran after a skunk and got sprayed in the face. That dog yelped and ran to me to help him. I have never run so fast in my life!!
❤❤❤i learned to cook from my sweet, beautiful petite Cajun Momma. She put onions, celery, peppers & garlic in almost everything she cooked. Especially soups & stews. She said that the celery leaves were the most flavorful part of the celery. Celery sticks stuffed with cream cheese is very good add in dates & pecans to the cream cheese and it's a treat!❤
Celery, especially the leaves, is surprisingly nutritious, and home grown is amazingly delicious. The leaves can be dried and powdered for use in many dishes.
It's a polecat! That's what we call them here in the Appalachia Mtns of NC! What do you do Danny when your heart is in arrhythmia? You can't be shocked to bring your heart back when it's in arrhythmia is what they told me!!! I have tried to beat a huge possum with a rake B4 and then got my shot gun! I'm 70 & I'm the only one around here in my small homestead... Take care of yourself Danny!!! Miss Wanda would like to have you around for a few more years 💖
I would like to see both of them around, and healthy, for a long time to come, but we all go Home when He calls us. IMO, the only thing better to hear than, “Well done, thou good and faithful servant,” is, “My child, I am proud of you.”
I've been enjoying all your videos from Pecan Grove. I hardly ever post comments but I do want to help yall out with the algorithms. That skunk was a stinky situation lol. Danny took it on like a real champ though. God bless you both for your inspirational and teaching videos. Im growing a lot of my own food now because of the knowledge I've aguired from your channels. Keep them comimg please!
Hi Danny and Wanda. We’re about your age so we can relate. (I also have similar heart issues for years that no one can figure out) We had a similar skunk experience. Years ago we boarded our horses at a friends farm. We had a large wooden tack locker we kept there. One day while arriving to the barn, I saw a skunk run past me and over to where our tack locker was. He’d ended up hiding under it. Our friend told us not to worry and to just go enjoy the day with our horses. While out riding we heard a gunshot. He told us he’d gotten it so no worries. Needless to say, we had to roll out our giant locker (thank goodness we had built it well on strong wheels lol) and empty it of EVERYTHING!! It all stank for weeks lol. He passed in 2012. We miss him dearly. What a great friend he was!! Glad you caught it before it caused any more damage. Love you guys and your channel ❤! 💕~Cheryl~💕
I didn't have many green beans either. 2 packs turned out to be pole beans. That didn't work in raised beds with no trellis. One pack turned out to be black Eyed peas. I ordered from MIGardener for next year. I love green beans. I'm planting Rattlesnake pole beans next year. I'm in process of building 2 new low beds with stakes and cattle panels. I live in Burke County nc.
@@ladyemerygizer i also had pole beans come up instead of bush! Had to put trellis up for them and they didn’t make a bean at all. I don’t remember where I ordered them from, but did put out bush beans from MI Gardener and now I have bush beans producing.
Oh my goodness! Watching you deal with the skunk was funny. One day this week I thought I smelled a skunk but realized the dog kill a ground hog. It was rotting in the bushes.
They sell skunk traps (that you might be able to make). It's a large plastic tube. If a skunk can't raise its tail, it can't release the stink bomb. Tube is tight so prevents him from spraying. Good luck!
We had a horrible problem with skunks about 15 years ago in our country subdivision (1-acre lots). We moved in during summer and of course the seller didn't tell us about the skunk infestation in the area. Fall rolled around, and unbeknownst to us skunks dug burrows under the deck and front porch -- and all over the neighborhood. The smell woke us in the middle of one October night, and the fight was on! Hubby got a license to trap them since the critter catcher company wanted $150 for each catch. We even trapped them in our neighbors' yards (no charge) to completely eliminate the area population and eventually got rid of about 35 over a couple of years. Lord, that was a nightmare time. The neighbors loved us, though 😊.
Great video & truly shows the reality of the homestead life. Its don't all smell like roses LOL. Dealing with those critters is not fun the smell lingers. & sometimes you even have to hose off your tools after you haul it off!
Danny is still very strong and balanced. That was a bit of a walk to the tree line. May take days to clear the air. Gotta protect the chickens. I have to say I was smiling. Curious about how many feet it was to the tree line? I'm trying to build up stamina on my walks and I'm horrible at distance.
I’ve lost 3 chickens this week, 1 to opossums and 2 to fox. Best skunk smell remover I have found is a quart of hydrogen peroxide, big squirt of dawn and 1/2 box baking soda. Mix it all up and wash in it, wash your dog in it….maybe douse your barn where the skunk was.
We live trap in havaheart traps. Put a cover on it with the handle sticking through cardboard works good. Bait at night then trap and take em for a ride. ( back of the truck ) As long as you don’t frighten them they don’t spray. They may fart a bit but it’s so much easier to deal with. We rigged a parachute cord to open the door once you get the latch tripped. We did fifteen this year now young ones are turning up and we’re trapping them out. Shooting em just makes a mess and ammo is expensive.
It's amazing the things that you all can grow off seasons than we can... Thank you all for sharing your knowledge! I have been following you all for years...
Oh no! I feel for you Danny. That's a horrible smell. Our problem here in NW Florida is the coyotes after our chickens so we had to put them in a pin and build them, what we call a chicken condominium, for them to go in at night and make it to where the coyotes couldn't get in. It was a big job but worth it to save our chickens. Hope you had a better day. God Bless.
I planted my grape vine in late April and got 4 gallon grapes in Sept. 2022 it was only 15inches tall when I planted it but each year since it has doubled the amount of grapes it produces started with 4 gal then 8 gal then 16 gal. who knows what next year will hold. My bell peppers yielded oodles too I planted in my use to be flower bed, gave it no extras in fertilizers or soils however every year as a flowerbed I bought the cheapest truck load of the darkest mulch to use on the whole yard for $53 a load. SECRET to GETTING MORE WHEEL BARREL Loads out of a truck bed full GET YOUR MULCH AFTER A HEAVY RAIN-it's compacted that way
Good morning y’all! When my brother was around 4 yrs old he got sprayed by a 🦨. My mother and I like to have never got that smell washed off of him. It was horrible! All of us were gaging. We had to throw his clothes away.
That would have been a good day to have been wearing that heart monitor...it would have given them them something interesting in the read-out. Oh poor Danny! The glamorous life of a homesteader... I sure hope that smell airs out of your barn. Thank you for the tip about celery, I tried marigolds around my pole beans this year with no luck they are just ate up with spider mites. Thank you for the fun and informative video.
I know that smell too well! I ran over one with my van one time. I had to go to car wash 2 times with under carriage wash and still didn’t get it all. I was holding my breathe as you went in your shop to get it!😂😂👃
Thanks for the bonus video. Now, that’s entertainment. I never did it, but I have heard of farmers baling skunks in hay or straw and mowing it back. Long term barn smell. Duane
Mr. Danny this is where I found that Vicks is your best friend .. In bad situations I'd rather smell Vicks any day of the week ... This is a tip I learned from my granny many years ago . Hope all is well .. Blessing from Texas .
Oh, Danny! You and your skunks! Too funny! They just won't leave you alone.... You two gave me a good laugh. 😀🤣Oh, I adore celery!! Good for you to add it to things so you guys get all the benefits. Organic celery has been a bit difficult to get lately.
Been around 2 skunks that we shot and both sprayed. Terrible for days and days. You think it’s gone and it rains and it is like it happened yesterday with the smell again. Thanks for sharing.
I don't feel bad now, cause none of my lettuce or kale has come up. We are now back up to 103* real feel here in SC, I'll wait & replant. I do have fall tomatoes & potatoes doing great. Thanks.
Skunk scent is bad enough but, after a few days, the “ripe” skunk is at least as bad. At least that’s a problem that’s a “one and done” and the scavengers will deal with it happily.
My bell peppers all started to rot in one area. Didn't know what caused that, so don't know what to do to fix it. All the lower ones by my trellises got eaten by insects at first but now the ones at the top of the plants are ok 👍
We have skunks everywhere. They want the chicken feed but we've been fortunate not to have any chickens killed. One of them was cuddled up with a turkey one time and I wasn't aloud to shoot that1 lol.
My Jack Russell got sprayed one night, and when I opened the door he flew into the house in a frenzy. He dashed into the kids’ bedroom, got under the beds and rubbed his body all over the carpet trying to get that scent off. The smell lasted for a week and it was awful!
A skunk sprayed under my neighbor's deck late one night. This neighbor was leaving on a trip early the next morning and didn't go outside other than to get in the car (in the garage) to drive to the airport. Skunk smell is so insidious that the woman sitting in the airplane seat next to her complained about the smell and asked to be moved!
I have read that lovage tastes a lot like celery, but stronger. It’s a perennial where it grows, and can get 6’ or so in height. When we get a permanent garden space, I will try some.
I HAD TROUBLE WITH LETTUCES, GREEN BEANS, PEAS, THIS YEAR BUT IM NORTH OF THE 45 PARELL BUT IM GETTING A FALL CROP OF GREEN BEAN AND YELLOW WAX BEAN'S TUFF GARDENING THIS YEAR FOR SURE.
Bro Danny you might already know this…worth a shot….anytime my heart feels like the beats are off, I make myself cough as hard as I can and it always helps me. Might need to add a gas mask to the needs list😂
When I bought my homestead it had three 60' mulberry trees. Plus a few little ones. The deer generally eat the bulk of them before I can harvest them. Frustrating.
You talk crazy , my Easter lily bulbs are blooming again , its only been 4 months and they are blooming big beautful blossoms . I have never had this happen . God is good
I can smell that skunk from here. Wow. My neighbor had a critter un=aliving his chickens and we put our trail camera out for him. It un-alived 6 chickens over a period of time. Found out it was a raccoon. It was going into the coop and grabbing one every few days. It was pushing itself through the chicken wire. It crawled up the fencing and pushed through the top side of the wiring. So if anyone is having problems like this, put a trail camera out to see what's going on at night. He put an electric wire down low after that and the problem was solved.
When I was a kid my dad had a pigeon coop that he kept for training bird dogs. I used to go in there with a fishing net to catch pigeons. We started finding multiple pigeons every day still sitting in the nest boxes with no head. found out it was giant RATS. . Apparently more than 1 type of critter will eat only the head. Probably because they aren’t hungry they are just eating the candy.
We have neighbors who constantly let their livestock run loose, and this is NOT a free range area. Come the cold weather, there will be a harvest, because they have been warned repeatedly.
Years ago we had something getting our chickens. When we went to bed left the bedroom window open with the shotgun set up & a spotlight. When we heard the commotion in the night I flipped on the light & my husband shot. We immediately knew it was a skunk. That was its last chicken dinner!
Good morning Mr Danny and Ms Wanda. Once that smell is in y'all's nose it's there all day 😂. Caught one in a trap by accident and was like what do I do now since it was right next to the house. Was definitely not a fun situation. High tunnel as always looks amazing. Thank y'all for sharing have a blessed day.
When I spent first summer session at the Itasca Biology Station in Minnesota, someone was putting out live traps and caught a baby skunk. I was assigned to remove it, which I did without incident while the rest of the class watched from cover. The professor claimed that he no longer believed in Him, but I think that he was outprayed.
That’s terrible, my dog got sprayed, it tools weeks to get the stink out, even after soaking her in tomato juice. Mr Danny you just cowboy Right up up and hotter done. Mrs Wanda was funny Thanks for sharing with all of us your life’s adventures, the good, the bad,and the ugly
I have to share...my 90 year old mom traps and removes skunk from her property. She is a farm raised girl but wont expire them, so she raises a blanket in front of her walks to the cage covers it and puts in the back of her vehicle and releases l
I had 2 dauschunds years ago that both got blasted by skunks at different times. Turned out my neighbor had mommy and her babies living in his window well. He even put a ladder so mommy could get out for food. No wonder I couldn't stop the dogs from getting sprayed.
I'm like Danny, I understand that a skunk sprays to defend itself from other critters, but...why did our heavenly Father create it ? 😅 I wonder 🤔. Though it is a beautiful animal.
Danny I had a skunk in my garage one time it was it the cor er every time I went go near it it would make a stomping noise at me I opened the back door then told it to leave I went back into the house for about 20min then when I came out it was gone but it didn't spray thank God I didn't let my little dog out I had at the time they are very annoying
🎉🎉❤ Enjoyed your daily life from Maryland I have a small patio garden and grow o w in all kinds of containers I'm gr I wing green grapes in large flower pot with a trellis question do you have to cut the grape vines back or just leave it alone on my trellis it's out side it has buds on the stems Thank you
I grew up on a farm in Michigan and let me tell you I know about skunks. They are horrible stinky just a nuisance. I always learn something from you guys. I did not know celery help with pests.
Wanda cracks me up standing waaaaay back filming Danny says “this is bad, really bad”. Wanda giggles and say “all in a day’s work”. 😜😜. Well played Wanda!
I'm covering my nose & holding my breath & I'm in Indiana. Poor Danny. Hope your day got better!❤

I raised celery for the first time here in Central Indiana, it turned out awesome.
That’s exciting!

Those are a big fail here. Waste of money. Get a havaheart and cover it. They last for decades and they work.
We don't release because skunks are known to travel back to where they came from just to do it all over again.

Can’t have turkey and dressing without celery…plus tuna salad, chicken salad. Love, love, love celery!
Poor ole Mr Danny needed his respirator!!!! That was a LCE! for sure! I felt so bad for him and in this horrible heat! God bless ya.
Danny is still very strong and balanced. That was a bit of a walk to the tree line. May take days to clear the air. Gotta protect the chickens. I have to say I was smiling. Curious about how many feet it was to the tree line? I'm trying to build up stamina on my walks and I'm horrible at distance.
I love all the raised beds! It would be such a blessing ❤
I also am hoping to add a high tunnel with raised beds even if it takes me 4-6 years to save for it.
I pray you get your blessing soon.
I’ve lost 3 chickens this week, 1 to opossums and 2 to fox. Best skunk smell remover I have found is a quart of hydrogen peroxide, big squirt of dawn and 1/2 box baking soda. Mix it all up and wash in it, wash your dog in it….maybe douse your barn where the skunk was.
Wish I could subscribe several times! Love you two!
You were still correct. A skunk IS a weasel.
We live trap in havaheart traps. Put a cover on it with the handle sticking through cardboard works good. Bait at night then trap and take em for a ride. ( back of the truck ) As long as you don’t frighten them they don’t spray. They may fart a bit but it’s so much easier to deal with. We rigged a parachute cord to open the door once you get the latch tripped. We did fifteen this year now young ones are turning up and we’re trapping them out. Shooting em just makes a mess and ammo is expensive.
Ugh! What a way to start the morning!
Look at the bright side. Probably nothing worse will happen for the rest of the day.
It's amazing the things that you all can grow off seasons than we can...
Thank you all for sharing your knowledge!
I have been following you all for years...
I know ,makes me want to move to have more time to grow more.😅
Oh no! I feel for you Danny. That's a horrible smell. Our problem here in NW Florida is the coyotes after our chickens so we had to put them in a pin and build them, what we call a chicken condominium, for them to go in at night and make it to where the coyotes couldn't get in. It was a big job but worth it to save our chickens. Hope you had a better day. God Bless.

All in a days work! I didn’t know skunks killed chickens. Glad you got him!
Skunks are as omnivorous as humans. I would like to say that they are less picky, but I have seen what some humans eat. 🤢
How did you end up killing him
@@steppininit8559 Danny said he went and got the .22.
Good morning y’all! When my brother was around 4 yrs old he got sprayed by a 🦨. My mother and I like to have never got that smell washed off of him. It was horrible! All of us were gaging. We had to throw his clothes away.
This is a good one,I actually like the smell of skunk, glad you were able to dispatch it,thanks for sharing your daily adventures.
Nice to see you both chuckling about it at the high tunnel
Skunks will burrow under your shed or patio. They are very hard to move!
Sorry about the critter, but glad you got him. Love what you are doing with the high tunner. Thanks for sharing.
Goodness got a good laugh sorry Danny. I would have probably had a heart attack. Have a great day!

That high tunnel really gives back tremendously, doesn’t it?
Yes it does
So funny Mr Danny! 🤣😂 I’m sorry you had to endure that stink. 🤢
Even the crow is laughing at you Danny. I'm so sorry. I'd say I would help if I could, but really I'd be back there with Wanda!
I know that smell too well! I ran over one with my van one time. I had to go to car wash 2 times with under carriage wash and still didn’t get it all. I was holding my breathe as you went in your shop to get it!😂😂👃
"Pick a peck of purty purple peppers"! Our peppers here in FL are going bonkers, too.
Yall will love fresh Celery, we grew ours and it was greener and tasted so much better than store bought.
That smell gets in your nose and you relive it. Glad you got the skunk out but Danny looked like he might lose his lunch.
Oh my goodness, what a way to start your day!
hi danny 🤗
so glad you got the culprit and survived the smell. tfs
Loved you folks stalking a skunk. Too funny. We have all had skunk experiences.
They are such miserable little fellows to deal woth.

I like to peel my celery with a potato peeler. Makes it much more edible to me
Don't take all the fiber away, it's important for digestion .
Been around 2 skunks that we shot and both sprayed. Terrible for days and days. You think it’s gone and it rains and it is like it happened yesterday with the smell again. Thanks for sharing.

Yes, coughing or gagging can cause a vaso vagal reaction that gets the heart back to proper sinus rhythm.❤🤠❤
When I bought my homestead it had three 60' mulberry trees. Plus a few little ones. The deer generally eat the bulk of them before I can harvest them. Frustrating.
I noticed yesterday that my apple tree is in full bloom her in September. I’m near Brookhaven Mississippi.
That's happening in several places.
Signs of the times!
Ive been watching deep south for around 10 years now, just subscribed here today though , good video. Nice high tunnel.
You talk crazy , my Easter lily bulbs are blooming again , its only been 4 months and they are blooming big beautful blossoms . I have never had this happen . God is good
Wow 👌
I can smell that skunk from here. Wow. My neighbor had a critter un=aliving his chickens and we put our trail camera out for him. It un-alived 6 chickens over a period of time. Found out it was a raccoon. It was going into the coop and grabbing one every few days. It was pushing itself through the chicken wire. It crawled up the fencing and pushed through the top side of the wiring. So if anyone is having problems like this, put a trail camera out to see what's going on at night. He put an electric wire down low after that and the problem was solved.
When I was a kid my dad had a pigeon coop that he kept for training bird dogs. I used to go in there with a fishing net to catch pigeons. We started finding multiple pigeons every day still sitting in the nest boxes with no head. found out it was giant RATS. . Apparently more than 1 type of critter will eat only the head. Probably because they aren’t hungry they are just eating the candy.
Good morning Mrs Wanda and Mr Danny ❤
Lots of peppers. Awesome 😊
You know I had a good laugh to start the day but b4 I could finish this video I had 2 neighbors pigs in my yard ❤❤❤ gotta love country life 🤣😆😂💯
We have neighbors who constantly let their livestock run loose, and this is NOT a free range area. Come the cold weather, there will be a harvest, because they have been warned repeatedly.
@@vickisavage8929 lol that’s not the case here this couple is our friends one house away I just had to call he came and got them right away
Years ago we had something getting our chickens. When we went to bed left the bedroom window open with the shotgun set up & a spotlight. When we heard the commotion in the night I flipped on the light & my husband shot. We immediately knew it was a skunk. That was its last chicken dinner!
Good morning Mr Danny and Ms Wanda. Once that smell is in y'all's nose it's there all day 😂. Caught one in a trap by accident and was like what do I do now since it was right next to the house. Was definitely not a fun situation. High tunnel as always looks amazing. Thank y'all for sharing have a blessed day.
When I spent first summer session at the Itasca Biology Station in Minnesota, someone was putting out live traps and caught a baby skunk. I was assigned to remove it, which I did without incident while the rest of the class watched from cover. The professor claimed that he no longer believed in Him, but I think that he was outprayed.
Loud rock and roll music usually moves them on
That’s terrible, my dog got sprayed, it tools weeks to get the stink out, even after soaking her in tomato juice. Mr Danny you just cowboy Right up up and hotter done. Mrs Wanda was funny Thanks for sharing with all of us your life’s adventures, the good, the bad,and the ugly
I hate catching skunks in a trap. 😖
I have to share...my 90 year old mom traps and removes skunk from her property. She is a farm raised girl but wont expire them, so she raises a blanket in front of her walks to the cage covers it and puts in the back of her vehicle and releases l
Information says that if they're moved and released they will return in given time.
The bell peppers are somethin else! Wow!
I had 2 dauschunds years ago that both got blasted by skunks at different times. Turned out my neighbor had mommy and her babies living in his window well. He even put a ladder so mommy could get out for food. No wonder I couldn't stop the dogs from getting sprayed.
I'm like Danny, I understand that a skunk sprays to defend itself from other critters, but...why did our heavenly Father create it ? 😅 I wonder 🤔. Though it is a beautiful animal.
Great video Danny and wanda!!
That crow is telling everyone about it 😂
Hello. Sorry you had to deal with this first thing in the morning. I often wondered why Jesus made termites too. God bless and Much love 💖
They both have their place in the scheme of things. We just prefer that they be elsewhere.

🤔🤔🤔
I just did that 2 days ago myself.
😁
Have experienced the dog getting sprayed and putting in the bath. House stunk 3 days. Can't breathe, it gags ya. Feel for ya!

Thank you

Great video!
I grew up on a farm in Michigan and let me tell you I know about skunks. They are horrible stinky just a nuisance. I always learn something from you guys. I did not know celery help with pests.
Ah yes. A close encounter with Pepe Le Pew. Stay out of the spray zone Ms. Wanda. 🤣
