What Homeowners Should Know About Opossum Removal

Coming in at between 10 and 14 pounds, opossums
are generally considered non-aggressive animals
even through anytime they feel threatened they
will hiss so loudly they will easily scare
anyone. Even though opossums arent very common
in human habitations like several other furry
creatures, anytime you see then around you need
to remember that they are wild animals and they
must be handled as such they should be dealt
with fast and with a lot of care. Animal control
services understand that having any animal
anywhere in your property can be a scary issue
and they will be more than willing to assist.

Should you discover an opossum or need squirrel
removal anywhere in your property or living
underneath your home, you should start by calming
down so that you dont scare it and it starts
acting aggressively. However, even if the animal
started acting aggressively, you should not at
all try to engage it. The first thing you are
going to do is to call your local opossum removal
service because they know how to deal with any
kind animal removal emergency.

Animal removal service experts are well trained
in all matters to do with aggressive animals and
they know how to deal with them safely and
effectively especially because they have the
right opossum removal tools and equipment. It is
an open secret among wildlife control service
experts that wild animals will bite when they
feel threatened and frightened even though
opossums dont carry the rabies virus, they can
be infected by a number of dangerous bacteria
that they can easily transfer to humans and their
pets.

Opossums have the habit of hiding under porches,
in sheds or even inside the attic as long as they
can find their way inside. Once they get space
inside, the females will start to nest and raise
their young and you can be sure they will not
leave easily unless they get forced out.

The animal removal service companies know humane
ways for handling any creatures that come close
to human habitations. The only effective and
permanent opossum removal method is expert
trapping, habitat modification, and exclusion.
They always discourage one-way doors since
opossums can easily return and simply chew their
way into your home in another way.

Opossum mothers will carry their babies
everywhere they go which mean that once the
opossum removal expert has dealt with them they
will be little chance that they will be left at
your home. However, when all is said and done,
the animal removal service will do a thorough
check for all live and dead creatures before they
can seal off any entry to your property as a
permanent solution. Unfortunately, animal
repellants dont work so dont even try DIY
opossum removal.
