Why Opossum Removal Matters

Opossums might look slow and harmless when you see them outside, but things feel a lot different when they decide to set up shop in your attic, garage, or under the deck. They’re scavengers, which means they leave behind messes, knock things over, and can even spread parasites or bacteria through their droppings. On top of that, their scratching and shuffling noises at night can make it hard to get a good night’s sleep.

The problem is that opossums are stubborn once they find a safe, warm spot. Simply trying to scare them off usually won’t work for long. If the entry points aren’t sealed, they’ll just wander right back in.

At Critter Hero, we take care of opossum problems using safe, humane removal methods. We make sure the animal is out, then we secure the space so they can’t return. The goal isn’t just to remove the opossum, but to keep your home protected for good.
