How to Get Rid of Opossums

Here are some effective ways to get rid of opossums:

  1. Eliminate Food Sources: Remove pet food, bird feeders, and any fallen fruits or vegetables from your yard. Opossums are attracted to easy food sources.
  2. Secure Trash Cans: Use tightly sealed lids on garbage bins to prevent opossums from accessing food scraps. You can also secure lids with bungee cords if needed.
  3. Clean Up Compost Piles: If you have an open compost pile, make sure it’s covered or enclosed, as opossums may be drawn to food waste.
  4. Remove Shelter Options: Block access to potential shelters, such as under porches, decks, or sheds, by installing mesh or fencing around the base and ensuring it extends at least 12 inches underground to prevent digging.
  5. Use Motion-Activated Lights or Sprinklers: Set up motion-activated lights or sprinklers near entry points or garden areas. Sudden light or water can scare opossums and encourage them to leave.
  6. Install Fencing: Erect a fence around gardens or other vulnerable areas. A fence that’s 4 feet high and angled outward at the top can help keep opossums out.
  7. Sprinkle Natural Repellents: Use safe deterrents like garlic, hot pepper, or ammonia near areas where opossums are active. Opossums find these smells unpleasant and may avoid treated areas.
  8. Set Up a Live Trap: If the problem persists, use a humane live trap baited with fruits or cat food. Once captured, release the opossum far from your property (check local wildlife regulations for guidance on relocating wildlife).
  9. Block Access Points to Attics or Crawl Spaces: If opossums are entering your home, inspect for gaps or holes and seal them with durable materials like steel mesh.
  10. Contact a Wildlife Control Professional: For recurring issues or large populations, consider hiring a wildlife control expert who specializes in safe and humane opossum removal.

These methods can help you safely and effectively deter opossums from settling in your yard without harming them.
