Signs you have a opossum problem
Wildlife problems rarely fix themselves, and they often get more costly to deal with the longer they continue. If you notice any of the signs below, it is worth having your property looked at early.
- Noises in the attic, crawl space or under a porch, usually at night.
- Overturned trash cans and pet food eaten outdoors.
- Droppings, tracks and a musky smell near sheds, decks or garages.
- Nesting material in garages, sheds or under a deck.
- A bold animal seen wandering the property after dark.
How we remove opossums
- Inspection: we find where the opossum is denning and how it is getting in.
- Humane removal: we remove the opossum humanely, using one-way exclusion devices where they fit the situation.
- Sealing and repairs: we close up entry points under decks, sheds and into crawl spaces, with odor and dead-animal cleanup where it applies.
- Follow-up: we check that the animal has not returned and the repairs are holding.
Our process follows the same careful, humane approach on every job and is adjusted to the animal and your property. We explain each step as we go, so you always know what is being done and why.

Frequently asked questions
Are opossums dangerous?
They are usually shy and tend to leave people alone, but they can defend themselves if cornered. Keep your distance and call us.
Will an opossum leave on its own?
Sometimes, but a good den site attracts others. Sealing entry points helps stop repeat visits.
Do you clean up afterward?
Where it applies, we handle odor and dead-animal cleanup as part of the work.
How much does wildlife removal cost?
Pricing varies quite a bit with the animal, the structure and the work needed. It is easiest to explain by phone, so call (231) 903-7255 for a free quote.
