Opossums are slow and not aggressive, but a den under the deck or in the garage brings droppings, fleas and ticks you do not want against the house.
Something living under the deck or in the garage? Opossums den in dark, low spots against the house. They will not attack, but they bring droppings, fleas and ticks and can foul a crawlspace. We get the opossum out and seal the space so the next one, or a raccoon, cannot move in.
Opossums look for a dark, sheltered, ground-level den: under a deck or shed, in a crawlspace, or in an open garage. They are nomadic and slow, and they are a Texas fur-bearing species, so removal is handled accordingly. The issue is less aggression and more the mess and parasites they bring against the house.
We remove the wildlife, then seal the gaps under the deck, shed or foundation with barrier and hardware so the next opossum, or a raccoon, cannot move in. Any droppings and contamination under the structure can be cleaned as part of the job.
