Pepe Le Pew Remains on the Loose

Over the weekend, Pepe Le Pew (a.k.a. pole cat, skunk), "sprayed" a visit to Central Office.  He (or she) made their presence known everywhere but "sprayed" special attention to the Maintenance Department.  Seen below is a photo of the department's efforts to catch Pepe.  Needed items for such are trap, oiled sausage at least 9 months old, and l-o-n-g rope that leads out da' door.  

FYI:  According to Dr. Google, a skunk can spray with accuracy up to 10 feet and a fine mist can reach up to 15 feet.  To aid in its projection, a skunk may stand on its front feet.  A skunk's musk volume is approximately 1 tablespoon and can spray up to 6 times consecutively (Yeh, right, who's counting anyway!)
