Opossums are a common sight throughout Central Florida, and despite their seemingly harmless appearance, they can create various issues for homeowners and business proprietors. It becomes imperative to address opossum trapping and removal due to the potential risks associated with health, safety, and the environment.

Health Hazards Linked to Opossums:

Opossums serve as carriers for diseases that can be transmitted to both humans and pets. Among these diseases are leptospirosis, tuberculosis, spotted fever, and toxoplasmosis. Leptospirosis, a bacterial infection, can induce symptoms such as fever, headache, and muscle aches, progressing to severe complications like liver and kidney failure. Tuberculosis, affecting primarily the lungs, can also impact other body parts. Spotted fever, caused by a bacterial infection, leads to fever, headache, and rash, potentially becoming fatal if untreated. Toxoplasmosis, a parasitic infection, can exhibit flu-like symptoms and poses particular risks for pregnant women and those with weakened immune systems.

Beyond diseases, opossums can harbor fleas and ticks, which may transmit diseases such as Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever to pets and humans, causing discomfort and irritation.

Safety Hazards Linked to Opossums:

Opossums introduce various safety hazards to homeowners and business owners. As carriers of fleas, ticks, and mites, they can transmit these pests to pets and humans, causing irritation and discomfort. Additionally, opossums carry other pests like various insects, known to inflict damage on homes and businesses. Their propensity to chew through wiring and insulation can result in electrical fires and other hazards. Furthermore, they can damage gardens and crops, leading to substantial financial losses for homeowners and farmers.

Environmental Hazards Linked to Opossums:

Opossums, being scavengers, consume a wide range of items, including garbage, pet food, and birdseed. This habit can contribute to the accumulation of food waste and debris around homes and businesses, attracting pests like rodents and insects. Moreover, opossums can inflict damage on gardens and crops, posing additional financial challenges for homeowners and farmers.

Opossum trapping and removal is important for a number of reasons. Opossums not only pose a significant threat to human health and safety but can also cause substantial damage to properties and lead to environmental hazards such as the buildup of food waste and debris. Enlisting the services of a professional wildlife removal service ensures that homeowners and business owners effectively safeguard themselves and their properties from these potential hazards.
