Within the last 2 weeks I've had 2 diffrent sick skunks in my yard.The one died and theother wants seem to be dying too.They are week and you can walk up close to them and I have noticed that both have a bunch of ticks on them.Could that be the reason why the first one died and the second is dying too because the ticks suck the blood out and the skunks became very week and anemic?Serious answers please.Thanks.

My yard had been overcome with dandelions so I went online and looked up how to get rid of them. Found out that they can be good for you and save from killing your yard with weed killer. Here are some tips:
Dandelions: Friend or Foe?
Everything you never knew about the lowly dandelion.
How can those pesty weeds that you work so hard to get rid of be good for anything? Think again before you consider the dandelion your garden enemy! According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, dandelions are more nutritious than broccoli or spinach, contain more cancer-fighting beta-carotene than carrots, and are a rich source of calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium, thiamine, riboflavin, lecithin, and dietary fiber!

I have 10 hedges that are pretty big, I'd say 5 feet tall by 4 feet wide and 4 feet deep. I've already trimmed the bushes down to where they all meet before they go under the ground. I've thought about pulling them up with my truck, but I think that the roots might go further out than I expected and I don't want them to ruin the yard. I don't think that I want to dig them up with a spade as the main root is about 10 inches in diameter. Would pulling them up with my truck be a good idea, or is there a better one?
