Opossum Removal

Opossum Removal in Valrico

What Are Opossums?

Don’t let a grinning grin disrupt your peace of mind! Opossums, while often misunderstood, can become unwelcome guests in your home or yard. Gotcha Wildlife Removal is here to offer safe, humane, and effective opossum removal services throughout Tampa Bay.

Opossums, also known as Virginia opossums, are North America’s only marsupials. They have a distinctive grey coat, black ears, and beady eyes. While they play a valuable role in the ecosystem by eating insects and carrion, opossums can become a nuisance when they move into your attic, crawl space, or shed.

If you have spotted one of these critters in your yard, reach out to us at (813) 321-4464 for a safe and humane removal.

Signs of an Opossum Problem

  • Scratching noises in the walls or attic at night.
  • A foul odor, particularly near entry points.
  • Visible droppings around your property.
  • Damage to insulation, wiring, or stored items.
