 Trutech has trained professional experts in opossum control and opossum removal. The Opossum, sometimes misspelled as possum, is the only North American marsupial. Opossums do have a pouch where their babies live, after they are born. Females will typically have no more than ten young. Opossums are generally nomadic since they live close to where they find sufficient food, water, and shelter. Most calls for opossum removal come from seeing them eating dog or cat food on the porch, or they come from hearing bumping and banging under the house at night. Possum control and possum removal is usually accomplished by trapping by trained professionals.
 Opossums in a trap - Opossums will play dead when threatened. This is actually an involuntary response to the threat of a larger animal. When playing dead the opossum releases a foul smell from its anal glands which adds to the show. When they don’t feel threatened enough to play dead, the opossum will growl and hiss in an effort to look and sound vicious enough to scare the other animal away. If continually threatened, they will bite to defend themselves. Opossum control and possum removal are the solutions to rid your property of these animals.
 Opossum entering trap - The opossum does seem to have a resistance to rabies, because opossums have a lower basal body temperature than most other mammals. Though they are not often infected by rabies, opossums do carry fleas and intestinal parasites that can often have an impact on humans and domestic pets.
We can diagnose your possum control problem, trap and remove the offending individuals, and provide the necessary repairs to cover holes and construction gaps that may be allowing them entry into your home. So, if you suspect an opossum is using your home as a den, you should call the opossum control and opossum removal professionals at Trutech.
