About Opossum Removal

Opossum Removal Done Right

Opossums are slow and shy, but they will nest under porches, in crawl spaces, garages and attics. They tear insulation, raid trash and pet food and can bring fleas and ticks with them.

We inspect to find where the opossum enters, remove it, and close the space with steel mesh and skirting. If the animal has young, we remove them together.

Humane methods, careful sealing and cleanup. Every job includes an inspection first.
