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.

What New York customers say

★★★★★

Pigeons on a warehouse roof. Netting went up over two nights so we never stopped shipping.

Grant E., New York
★★★★★

Rats in the attic after two other companies just set traps. These guys spent half a day finding entry points and sealed eleven of them. Silent since.

Opossum Removal in New York: 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 New York?
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 New York?
Driven by access and how much sealing the crawl space needs. Flat quote in writing after inspection.
How fast can you get to me in New York?
Most New York calls booked before early afternoon get an inspection the same day. Animals trapped inside living space, injured animals and active emergencies are dispatched straight away. Call (276) 319-2391 and you will get a real arrival window.
There is an animal inside my house right now. What do I do?
Close interior doors to confine it to one room, open an exterior door or window in that room if you safely can, and keep people and pets away. Do not try to corner or handle it. Call (276) 319-2391 and we will talk you through it.
