POSSUM REMOVAL

OPOSSUM REMOVAL SERVICES
for Apex, Cary, Durham, Raleigh, Greensboro, NC & the Surrounding Areas

Possums often enter homes (the crawl spaces, in particular), in order to seek shelter. They can damage insulation when they attempt to build nests, and their droppings can cause damage since they defecate in the same spaces (called latrines) over and over again. 

POSSUMS CAN BE DANGEROUS! DON'T HANDLE THEM ON YOUR OWN!

Possums can carry rabies; however, it is rare that they do. These critters do still carry other diseases and parasites that you want to avoid exposing yourself and your family to. These can include relapsing fever, fleas, mites, tularemia & more. 


If anyone in your family including your pet is exposed to an opossum it is important to avoid any contact. These animals have over 50 sharp teeth and if bitten by one you can be seriously injured and/or infected. These critters are not typically aggressive animals but if they feel threatened they will, like any wild animal, attempt to defend themselves.  

SIGNS OF POSSUM INFESTATION:

  • Bumping or scurrying under floors
  • Musty odor in home or in crawl space

 

These creatures will collect pet food and garbage. The collected food and garbage will be stored somewhere within your home over time until it is rotted, causing a horrendous smell that will soon be hard to remove. 


WHY YOU SHOULD HIRE PROFESSIONALS FOR POSSUM REMOVAL

If you believe you have a possum in your home, it is important that you hire experienced professionals to inspect the property and remove the possum humanely. A professional wildlife removal company will be able to confirm whether you have possums in your home and will be able to identify the areas the possums are using to get inside your home. 


Since opossums and their feces can be quite dangerous, it is important to have the correct equipment for safety reasons. Professionals are well-equipped with items such as breathing masks and goggles. They also have the necessary size cage trap to trap any possums. Catching a possum requires time as they are nocturnal creatures. Save time, money, and stress by hiring professionals at Urban Wildlife and Bee Removal. Experienced trappers know the best spots to place the trap, which will help reduce the time the opossum has to cause damage in and around your home.
