OPOSSUM CONTROL & REMOVAL

OUR COMPREHENSIVE INSPECTION THAT PAVE THE WAY FOR EFFECTIVE OPOSSUM REMOVAL & PREVENTION STRATEGIES.


The opossum, a distinctive marsupial—a pouched mammal—is unique to Texas and North America, requiring specialized expertise for its management. These creatures are frequently observed in proximity to residential, stream, or wetland environments. In urban settings, they exhibit a tendency to seek refuge in spaces like attics, garages, chimneys, and beneath houses—any location that provides shelter. Such behavior can lead to disruptions and concerns within your living spaces.

Our Approach To Opossum Control & Removal

At Texas Pest & Wildlife, we conduct thorough opossum inspections that encompass every corner of your property, ensuring that no hiding spot goes unchecked. Our comprehensive approach covers your yard, foundation, roof, and even extends into the attic space. We understand that opossums can take advantage of various entry points and areas to establish their presence, which is why our experts leave no stone unturned when assessing your property for opossum infestations.

Starting with your yard, we carefully inspect the outdoor areas where opossums may be foraging for food or seeking shelter. This includes examining potential hiding spots such as bushes, shrubs, and debris that may provide suitable cover for these creatures.

Moving on to the foundation of your property, we meticulously inspect any potential entry points that opossums might exploit to gain access. Cracks, gaps, and openings are thoroughly examined to identify vulnerable areas that could be compromised by opossums.

Our inspection extends upwards to your roof, as opossums are known to climb and find their way onto rooftops. We check for signs of damage, such as claw marks or scratches, that may indicate opossum activity. Additionally, we examine roof vents, chimneys, and any other openings that could serve as entry points.

Lastly, our inspection reaches the attic, a common area for opossum infestations. We carefully examine insulation, wiring, and structural elements for any damage caused by opossums. If nesting materials or signs of opossum presence are detected, our experts take immediate action to address the issue.

With Texas Pest & Wildlife, you can trust that our thorough opossum inspections leave no room for oversight. Our goal is to provide a comprehensive assessment that enables us to develop effective removal and prevention strategies tailored to your property’s unique needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. Because opossums usually enter a building by climbing, you may notice exterior damage first. Often, opossum damage takes the form of torn up shingles and ripped soffit on your rooftop. An opossum infestation may also impact your siding, eaves, and gutter system.
  2. Opossums are particularly drawn to cat food. If you have cats, especially any outdoor cats, you may notice that their food disappears more quickly when you have an opossum infestation. If you suspect an opossum infestation, take measures to protect your cats who could become injured in a fight with an opossum.
  3. Opossums have a wide range of vocalizations, including hissing and shrieking. Mother opossums also make clicking or lip smacking sounds to call their babies. If you notice these noises when inside a building, chances are you have an infestation or a single opossum trapped inside.
  4. As opossums nest, they make lots of ripping, scuttling, and scratching noises. These noises can sound similar to rats or mice, but you will likely notice that the noises seem louder because they’re created by a bigger animal. Additionally, you may notice scratching across a wider area with an opossum infestation than with any other rodent problem because opossums do not stick solely to the edges of the attic space.
  5. One of the most distinct signs of an opossum infestation is the smell. Opossums defecate more frequently than most mammals and their droppings can be as large as a house cat’s. These wet droppings can soak into insulation and building materials, causing a distinctly unpleasant odor. Opossums can also become trapped by wiring or other architectural elements and may die there. If you have a dead opossum in your attic, you’ll know by the strong smell of decay.
