Opossum Removal Service

Opossums (possum) are scavengers, and they are commonly considered a pest because they make their way into trash cans, finding shelter in attics and under houses. Like other rodents, they break in through entry points. Mesh screens on doors and panels on attics are weak and easy for them to break through. Opossum removal can be complicated because they behave similarly to raccoons. Often attracted by pet food and bird seed, they raid property in search of easy food. If you are concerned about opossums, the best form of prevention is to seal the entry points, keep food inside, and have sealed garbage cans that they can’t knock over.

If you are hearing scratching sounds in your walls, floors, ceiling or attic it is probably an opossum.  They get into these places to have a litter of baby opossum, then you will be plagued with an infestation.

Opossum Removal

The best form of possum removal is to physically trap and remove the animal. Opossums aren’t especially bright, so they aren’t as difficult to trap as some other rodents. Because they scavenge for food, it’s possible that they may very well walk right into a cage. However, trapping can be quite complicated. When you leave an open trap out, you never know whether you’ll catch the animal your looking for. You might catch a stray cat or maybe even your own pet if you aren’t careful. If you do catch the animal, you will also need to consider where you will release it. Additionally, opossums commonly carry diseases. Any encounter with a possum means that you could risk exposure to various parasites and other health risks.

For these reasons as well as the protection of your Houston home and family, it is recommended that you hire opossum removal professionals to capture and control any pest problems. A cornered animal is dangerous no matter its size, and it takes a specialist with the proper equipment to safely trap and handle any dangerous or diseased animal.

Aside from removing the rodent, we will also fix any entry point it used so that other animals can’t follow in its path.
