As the name suggests, the smell of a skunk is extremely unpleasant. Anyone whose car has ever been 'marked' by a skunk will know how the foul aroma stays with you for weeks on your journey.

 

To get rid of the odour effectively, mix a cup of mustard in a bucket of lukewarm water. Stir well and spread the mixture on the tyres, wheels and underbody of the car.

 

Your passengers will be grateful!
