Opossum Removal Solutions in Olive Branch, MS

Opossums are America’s only native marsupial and while they provide benefits like consuming ticks and other pests, they can become troublesome when they take up residence in or around homes. These adaptable creatures frequently seek shelter in crawlspaces, under decks, in attics, or inside garages throughout Mississippi and Tennessee.

You may have an opossum problem if you notice overturned garbage cans, pet food disappearing overnight, or distinctive tracks with five widely splayed toes on each foot. Many homeowners first become aware of opossums after spotting them at night, hearing rustling noises under porches, or discovering damage to gardens and landscaping. Their distinctive musky odor and droppings similar to those of a small dog are also telltale signs of their presence.

Problems Caused by Opossum Intrusions

When opossums inhabit your property, they create several concerns:

  • They can damage insulation and structural elements when nesting in attics or crawlspaces.
  • Their droppings may contain harmful parasites including Salmonella and leptospirosis.
  • They occasionally raid chicken coops, pet food, gardens, and garbage containers.
  • Opossums can frighten pets and may show defensive behaviors when cornered.
  • They sometimes den in chimneys, under porches, or in outbuildings, creating odor and noise issues.
  • While typically non-aggressive, they may hiss, drool, or play dead when threatened, causing concern for homeowners.

At Magnolia Wildlife Solutions, our wildlife technicians understand opossum behavior and biology, allowing us to effectively remove these animals while preventing future problems. We recognize that opossums are beneficial in natural settings and ensure they’re relocated appropriately.

Jay responded promptly when I phoned him about a problem (little intruder in the attic). His employee Kyle came to my house and assessed the problem and explained everything to me. I found the work to be done very well, and both Jay and Kyle were so kind and professional. I definitely recommend Magnolia Wildlife Solutions. They seem to take pride in doing a job quickly to the customer's satisfaction.

Jay is very professional and knowledgeable. He responded quickly after reaching out to him. I could tell a difference the day after he set his traps. I am completely happy with the service. Jay also closed and secured how the squirrels made entry into my attic and surrounding areas. I appreciate all the work you did Jay!!!! Thank you soo much!!!

I can't say enough about these Guys! We had a squirrel eat through the wall in our office building and it was just running around inside. Jay was there the next morning and caught it with his hands. They set traps and sealed up all the holes around the outside of the building. No more issues since then. Jay and his team did a great job. If you need some critters removed from your property, call Magnolia Wildlife Solutions.

Professional Opossum Trapping & Exclusion

Our opossum management process begins with a thorough property inspection to identify entry points, denning locations, and attractants. Using humane live traps properly positioned in areas of opossum activity, our technicians safely capture these animals with minimal stress.

After successful trapping, we implement critical exclusion measures including:

  • Sealing potential entry points into crawlspaces, attics, and outbuildings.
  • Installing sturdy barriers around deck and porch perimeters.
  • Recommending modifications to eliminate food sources and denning opportunities.
  • Applying deterrents in strategic locations to discourage future activity.

We complete our service with cleanup of contaminated areas when necessary and follow-up to ensure opossums haven’t returned to your property.
