Frequently Asked Questions
Opossums surely play an important ecological role, but we do not recommend attempting to attract them to your home!
Do not attempt to handle opossums and use caution in areas where they have been nesting as their feces may spread disease.
When threatened and unable to escape, an opossum may fall on its side, open its mouth, and excrete a foul-smelling fluid from its anal glands. This behavior can deter predators that prefer live prey and make them lose interest in the opossum.
To avoid attracting unwanted attention from local wildlife, be sure to secure the lids of your garbage cans and store pet food in a sealed container. Additionally, it's a good idea to keep brush piles cleared away from your home and to trim any tree branches that allow these critters to get easy access to your roof.
