Professional Possum Control In Your Home

Possums are often shy and slow moving, but once they settle inside or under a structure they can cause real problems. In attics and crawlspaces they may flatten insulation, disturb materials, and leave droppings and urine that lead to odor and contamination. Around decks, sheds, or porches, they can dig or use existing gaps as shelter.

The biggest concerns for many families are noise at night, the condition of stored items, and the risk of a scared animal defending itself if cornered. While possums are not usually aggressive, they can bite or scratch if someone or a pet presses them. Their droppings, nesting materials, and any parasites they bring inside also raise health concerns for people who share that air space.

Our team approaches possum control with careful inspection and humane methods. We look for how and where animals are getting in, then design a plan that might include one way exits, live capture, or other removal approaches that comply with Michigan wildlife regulations. We avoid dangerous poisons and scatter baits that can harm non target animals or leave decomposing carcasses in hidden spaces.

Our Possum Removal Process

When you call our possum control company Stanton, we want you to know what to expect. A clear process can make a stressful situation feel manageable. We start by asking questions about what you have seen or heard, then schedule an on site inspection at your Stanton area property.

During the inspection, our technicians look for entry points, travel routes, droppings, nesting activity, and damage. We check attics, crawlspaces, garages, barns, sheds, and under structures as needed. From there, we outline a possum control plan that fits your home and your comfort level, and we explain it in plain language so you can make informed choices.

Here is how our possum removal process typically works:

• Initial phone conversation to understand your situation and schedule an inspection
• On site inspection to identify possum activity, entry points, and any related damage
• Development of a humane removal or eviction plan tailored to your structure
• Implementation of the plan, with care taken around children, pets, and livestock
• Cleanup of droppings and nesting materials, with damage repair options as needed
• Installation of exclusion materials and sealing of entry points to reduce future activity

As a certified Ridge-Guard installer, we can recommend and install this proven material along vulnerable roof and ridge areas. Ridge-Guard creates a strong barrier that helps keep not only possums, but also squirrels and other wildlife, from slipping into attic spaces through gaps in ridge vents.

Throughout the process, we communicate what we are doing and why. We strive to treat your property with respect, contain debris, and leave spaces in better shape than we found them. Our team has worked on homes, cabins, and farm buildings across central Michigan, so we are familiar with common construction details and wildlife patterns in this region.

Signs You Need Possum Control

Sometimes it is obvious that you have a possum problem. Other times, the signs are subtle and easy to ignore. Listening to what your home is telling you can help you catch wildlife issues earlier, before damage and odor become more serious. This is especially true in areas with older homes, barns, and crawlspaces like many properties around Stanton, MI.

You might suspect you need professional help if you notice slow, heavy footsteps in the attic at night, scratching or scuffling sounds in walls, or see a possum regularly traveling along your fence line or across your deck. Droppings in the attic or crawlspace, disturbed or flattened insulation, and a sudden smell that you cannot explain are also important clues.

Common signs that it is time to call our team include:

• Persistent nighttime noises above ceilings or under floors
• Visible possums entering or exiting from under decks, sheds, or additions
• Droppings, nesting materials, or disturbed insulation in attic or crawlspace areas
• New gaps or damage around vents, soffits, or crawlspace doors
• Pets showing strong interest in one area of the yard or house exterior
