Humane Opossum Removal in the OKC Metro Area
Got something hissing in your crawlspace? It’s probably an opossum.
Opossums are shy, slow-moving animals, but when they take up residence under your home or inside your garage or attic, they become a serious nuisance. Our Wildlife Removal services handle droppings, odors, and prevent further damage while keeping your property safe from fleas, ticks, and other pests.
At Atlas Termite & Pest Control, we provide humane opossum trapping, removal, and exclusion throughout the Oklahoma City metro area, including Norman, Edmond, Moore, Yukon, and Mustang.
Call now for a same-day opossum inspection or emergency removal service.
Why Opossums Are a Problem Around Homes
- Live in crawlspaces, garages, attics, and under decks
- Leave behind droppings and urine with strong odor
- Carry fleas, ticks, and parasites that spread to pets
- Can hiss, growl, or play dead when confronted
- Damage insulation and contaminate HVAC systems
- Nocturnal and active during quiet nighttime hours
Though generally not aggressive, opossums can become defensive if cornered — for safe handling, rely on our Opossum Help Norman services instead of attempting removal yourself.
Signs of an Opossum Infestation
- Noises at night — slow thumping, rustling, or hissing
- Droppings with a strong, foul smell in crawlspace or attic
- Pets growling or scratching at floor vents or deck boards
- Sightings around trash cans, pet food, or compost
- Digging around foundation vents or under skirting
Not sure if it’s an opossum or another wild animal? Our team will identify the culprit before setting traps.
Our 5-Step Opossum Removal & Exclusion Process
1. Full Property Inspection
We check all common access points, den sites, and nesting areas — including attics, crawlspaces, sheds, and HVAC closets.
2. Humane Live Trapping
We use safe, state-approved cage traps placed near den sites or travel paths. Traps are monitored daily for humane removal.
3. Legal Relocation (Where Permitted)
Captured opossums are relocated according to Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation regulations.
4. Den Sealing & Exclusion Repairs
We seal entry points with wildlife-proof materials — vent covers, barriers, screen reinforcement, and foundation sealing.
5. Sanitation & Odor Control (Optional)
We offer cleanup, odor removal, and insulation replacement if droppings or urine contamination is present.
All work is backed by expert technicians and long-term exclusion strategies through our Opossum Control Edmond services.
