Discovering opossums on your property can be a stressful and unnerving experience. These creatures might seem harmless, but their presence can lead to a host of issues that no homeowner or business owner should have to deal with. At AAAC Wildlife Removal, we understand the frustration and anxiety that an opossum infestation can cause. Our professional, compassionate, and efficient opossum removal services are designed to alleviate your concerns and restore your peace of mind.
Opossums, commonly referred to as possums, are marsupials native to North America. While they play a vital role in controlling insect and rodent populations, their presence in urban areas can lead to a range of problems for homeowners and businesses.
The first sign of an opossum problem is usually the noise they make. Being nocturnal mammals, opossums are most active during the night. Their movement in your attic, deck, or under your house can cause a significant disturbance, affecting your sleep and daily routine.
Opossums may also cause considerable damage to your property. They are known for rummaging through trash bins, overturning compost piles, and even destroying garden plants. Additionally, opossums may invade your home by creating nests in your attic or under your deck, which can lead to structural damage.
Perhaps the most concerning problem associated with opossums is the potential health risks they pose. Opossums carry a variety of diseases that can be transmitted to humans and pets, including:
Dealing with an opossum infestation is not something you should attempt on your own. Trapping and removal of opossums should be handled by a professional wildlife control operator. At AAAC Wildlife Removal, we are dedicated to providing safe, effective, and humane opossum control services.
The first and foremost step in our opossum removal process is a comprehensive inspection of your property. Our technicians, who are specially trained in wildlife behavior and habitat, will meticulously examine your property to identify the signs of opossum presence, locate their entry points, and determine the extent of the infestation. This will involve checking common opossum hiding spots like attics, basements, under decks, and garden areas. We will also look for indicators such as droppings, tracks, and nesting materials.
Once we have identified the opossums' entry points and hiding spots, we will implement measures to prevent them from entering your property. This may involve sealing off entry points such as holes in the roof, walls, or foundation, installing fencing around gardens or other vulnerable areas, or using natural repellents. Our exclusion measures are designed to be humane and environmentally friendly, ensuring the safety of both the opossums and your property.
After implementing the exclusion measures, our team of experts will use humane trapping methods to capture the opossums. We employ a variety of traps and bait to safely capture the animals without causing them any harm. Once captured, the opossums will be relocated to a safe and appropriate location, far from your property to prevent them from returning. We follow all local regulations and guidelines to ensure the welfare of the animals.
After the opossums have been removed, it is important to clean up the affected areas to remove any remnants of their presence. This includes removing any nests, droppings, or debris left behind. Our team will carefully clean and disinfect the affected areas to ensure there are no remaining health hazards or attractants for other wildlife.
Opossums can cause significant damage to your property, including chewing on wires, tearing insulation, and damaging plants. Our team will assess and repair any damage caused by the opossums, ensuring that your property is restored to its original condition. This may involve repairing holes in the walls, replacing damaged insulation, or replanting damaged garden areas.
Finally, it is important to implement prevention measures to keep opossums away from your property in the future. This may involve regular inspections to ensure that the exclusion measures remain effective, maintenance of fencing and other barriers, and education on best practices for preventing opossum infestation. We will also provide recommendations on how to make your property less attractive to opossums, such as removing food sources and providing secure trash containers.

Opossums are generally nocturnal creatures and difficult to spot during the day. However, there are some signs that may indicate an opossum infestation. These include the presence of feces resembling small dog droppings, damage to insulation or electrical wires caused by nesting activities, strange noises coming from your attic or crawl space, and food or pet food disappearing overnight. If you notice any of these signs, it is advisable to contact a professional wildlife removal service, such as AAAC Wildlife Removal, to assess and address the situation.
Opossums are generally not aggressive and tend to avoid confrontations with humans. They are timid creatures and prefer to flee rather than fight. However, if cornered or threatened, they may hiss, bare their teeth, or produce a foul-smelling substance as a defense mechanism. Opossums also have sharp claws and can deliver a painful bite if they feel threatened. It is important to maintain a safe distance from opossums and avoid attempting to handle them without proper training or protective gear.
To minimize the chances of opossums infesting your property, it is important to eliminate any food sources and access points that may attract them. Secure trash cans with tight-fitting lids, bring pet food indoors at night, and remove fallen fruits or vegetables from your yard. Additionally, seal any potential entry points in your home, such as gaps in the foundation or openings in vents or chimneys. If you suspect an opossum infestation or require assistance with opossum removal, contact a professional wildlife removal service like AAAC Wildlife Removal to ensure safe and effective removal methods are employed.
