FAQs

Is it legal to remove opossums on my own in [Your State]?

Laws vary by state and locality. In many areas, opossums are considered protected wildlife, which means DIY removal may require a permit or could be illegal. Our licensed professionals ensure removal complies with local wildlife regulations.

Do opossums pose a danger to pets or children?

While opossums are generally non-aggressive, they may hiss or show teeth when cornered. They can carry parasites like fleas and ticks, which pose indirect health risks to pets and children. Safe removal reduces these exposure risks.

Will an opossum return to my property once removed?

If exclusion work isn’t properly done, yes. Opossums are territorial and may try to re-enter through the same points. That’s why sealing off all access points and removing attractants like pet food or open garbage is essential.

Are opossums active year-round or only in certain seasons?

Opossums are active all year but are more likely to invade homes during cold months (fall and winter) or during breeding seasons in spring. That’s when they seek warmth and shelter, often in attics or under decks.

I heard opossums help with pests. Should I still remove them?

It’s true that opossums eat insects and small rodents, but the health and structural risks they pose in or near your home far outweigh the benefits. Professional removal ensures they don’t become a nuisance or safety hazard.
