While possums might not seem like the most intimidating animals, their sharp teeth and their fondness for manmade spaces can make them serious nuisances and even worse. They are scavengers who tend to make horrible messes while searching for food. Furthermore, they are known to store uneaten food in their homes, which can create a host of health problems when it begins to rot. Finally, possums have no compunctions about leaving their excrement in their surroundings, thus creating further health problems.
With that said, it is important to note that the most common reason possums enter manmade spaces is that a female possum prepares to give birth to her children. As a result, if you fail to act as soon as possible, you could end up with a bigger problem than you had expected.
If you have a possum problem, you could attempt possum removal independently, but that is not a recommended course of action. After all, the sharp teeth of possums are used to eat rodents and other small animals, which is more than enough to cause serious harm to humans. Something particularly true if their bites happen to be carrying something that can be transmitted to humans.
Instead, you should immediately contact us for efficient and effective animal trapping to eliminate possums. This is particularly important because possums like to live in small, cramped spaces such as attics, basements, and between the walls. You need expertise, experience, and equipment for the best results. Just as importantly, we believe in the power of prevention, meaning that we will get rid of your possum problem and prevent future recurrences. We know where possums like to live and how possums break into buildings, meaning that we can use that knowledge to seal your home against other possums searching for food and shelter.
If you are interested in learning more about possums and our possum control services, please contact us at your earliest convenience to make a fully-informed decision about your possum problem.
