Opossum Removal
Opossums are intriguing creatures. They are gray and white with a pink, hairless tail. They are often willing to smile at you and play dead if you get too close but they are not afraid to use their razor sharp teeth. They should not be handled unless by a professional.
Background
Opossums are cute creatures, especially their young. They are the only native marsupial in the United States. They are excellent snake control as they eat snakes. Did I mention they are immune to snake venom? Amazing! Opossums can enter homes in a few different ways. Typically through foundation vent or digging under your HVAC system. They will often bring large amounts of fleas into the home. Opossums are carriers of some zoonotic diseases such as leptospirosis, tuberculosis, and more.
Opossum Removal
Opossum trapping requires high caution considering the amount of terrible diseases they can cause. It is much safer to higher a professional like us to remove these creatures. They are quick to be caught but can be difficult as they are smarter than some people realize. With opossums only being able to enter the home in a few locations, exclusion work is often completed quickly after the trapping portion. This will prevent any future critters from entering the home in those locations. We also offer feces cleanup to help with the awful odor that can come with opossums.
