Eliminate Food Sources

Possums will be attracted to your yard if they can easily find a source of food in it. If you take away the source of food, opossums won't have much incentive to stick around. This source can be pet food that is stored outside, unsealed trash cans, or even fruit that has fallen to the ground from your fruit trees. 

Seal Points of Entry

Even worse than finding an opossum living in your yard is finding one living in your home. If you already have an opossum living in your home, it is a smart idea to call a wildlife control professional to remove it.  Yet, if you are simply looking to do some preventative measures, you can fairly easily seal off any points of entry. Close off any gaps with chicken wire or hardware cloth.

 

Get Rid of Shelter

An opossum will come to your yard if they find food there, but they will only stay there if they are able to find shelter. Opossums can find shelter in piles of firewood or brush, or even within your porch or storage shed. To remedy this wildlife control issue, store your firewood indoors, clean up brush piles quickly, and seal off all the entrances.

Call Wildlife Control 360

The easiest and most effective way you can keep opossums out of your yard is to call Wildlife Removal Services. We can come out to your home and set humane traps for the opossums. Once the possums are trapped, your wildlife removal professional can relocate them to a new habitat that is far away from you.
