Opossum Removal for Delaware homes and businesses

Every opossum removal job in Delaware follows the same order: identify, remove, seal, clean. Opossums cleared from attics, crawl spaces and under decks, with the access route closed off. Skip a step and the problem comes back within a season.

If you are buying or selling in Delaware, a wildlife and pest inspection before closing is far cheaper than discovering contaminated attic insulation afterwards. We document findings with photographs you can hand to any party.

Delaware sees raccoons and squirrels through established neighbourhoods, with Norway rats concentrated near waterfront and commercial districts.

Call (276) 319-2391 or request an inspection and we will book a window that works.

How it runs

  1. Call and describe it

    Tell us what you are hearing, seeing or smelling at (276) 319-2391. Animals loose indoors and injured animals are dispatched immediately. Everything else gets an inspection window.

  2. Full inspection and flat quote

    We survey the roof line, foundation and crawl space, photograph every entry point, and give you one fixed number in writing. Nothing starts until you approve it.

  3. Remove, seal, clean

    The animal comes out humanely, every entry point is sealed under warranty, and contamination is cleaned up. You get before and after photographs.

What Delaware customers say

★★★★★

They quoted flat and stuck to it even when the attic turned out worse than expected. That is rare.

Ingrid T., Delaware
★★★★★

Attic smelled for months after a previous removal. Turned out the nesting material was never taken out. They cleared it properly.

Opossum Removal in Delaware: frequently asked questions

Are opossums dangerous?
Not especially. They are slow, non-aggressive and they eat ticks. The problems they cause are mess, parasites and the damage done getting in.
How do I know it is an opossum?
Slow, heavy movement rather than fast scurrying, often with hissing or clicking. Droppings are noticeably large for the size of the animal.
Can you remove one from a crawl space in Delaware?
Yes, and we screen the crawl space vents and skirting afterwards so it does not simply walk back in.
What about young?
Opossums carry young on the back, so the family is usually removed together and relocated as a group.
Do they carry fleas?
Frequently, which is why parasite treatment is often recommended after a removal from a crawl space or under a porch.
How much is opossum removal in Delaware?
Driven by access and how much sealing the crawl space needs. Flat quote in writing after inspection.
Can you tell me what it is over the phone?
Often we can narrow it down from when the noise happens and what it sounds like. But we do not quote blind, because treating a flying squirrel as a grey squirrel wastes your money.
Do you seal the entry point or just remove the animal?
We seal it. Removal alone leaves an open door, and something else finds it within weeks. Exclusion is quoted as part of the job, not sold to you afterwards.
