Unless you prefer new fragrances from natural colognes and perfumes. I did use the pole once it was over 12 ft long and was hidden behind a bank of dirt just in case I got blasted.
If you don't mind getting taking a chance on getting sprayed! This guy says he got sprayed 5 or 6 times! Once is too much for me. I just use a feeder and selectively shoot only coons leaving the skunk alone.
