Opossum Attic & Wall Removal in Katy

If you are hearing slow scratching at night, seeing torn insulation, finding droppings in the attic, or waking up to an opossum getting into trash, pet food, crawlspace areas, or under the deck, you may have a nuisance wildlife problem. Katy neighborhoods, fences, detached garages, greenbelts, trash areas, sheds, and backyard decks can attract opossums looking for shelter and food at night.

On Point Pest and Environmental Services provides opossum removal, humane exclusion, attic-focused wildlife control, and long-term entry point sealing for residential and commercial properties in Katy. Our process is built to do more than catch the animal. We inspect the structure, identify how the opossum is getting in, check for nesting areas and young when present, address the active wildlife issue, and seal vulnerable access points so the problem is less likely to return.

Whether you need opossum removal in Katy, help with a possum in the attic, or a clear plan to stop repeat nuisance wildlife entry around your home, garage, shed, deck, crawlspace, or business, the first step is a professional opossum removal inspection.

Katy Opossum Control FAQs

Have questions about opossum removal, possum droppings, opossums in the attic, humane wildlife service, dead animal removal, or exclusion work in Katy? These FAQs cover common signs of opossum activity, attic and health questions, Texas wildlife rules, animal control questions, cost, and what to expect from professional opossum removal and exclusion.

For Katy-area homes, opossum removal commonly averages $150 to $500 for a basic removal or trapping job. A simple outdoor possum trapper call under a shed, deck, porch, or fence line often falls closer to $150 to $350. If the opossum is inside an attic, wall, chimney, crawlspace, or hard-to-reach void, the project can average $500 to $1,500+ when multiple visits, exclusion sealing, odor control, attic cleanup, or damage repair are needed. The final cost depends on whether the opossum is outside, inside the structure, or actively using an entry point. On Point starts with a free inspection so Katy homeowners get an accurate price based on the real access, damage, and exclusion needs.

Yes. Attic opossum removal is one of the nuisance wildlife calls we handle. We inspect the roofline, vents, soffits, gable areas, attic access, insulation, droppings, nesting signs, and any opening the animal may be using. Then we remove the active animal and close the entry points so the same problem does not keep coming back.

Common signs include scratching, slow thumping, rustling at night, a musky smell, droppings, disturbed insulation, nesting material, stains, and damage around vents, soffits, fascia, chimney gaps, crawlspace openings, or garage edges. Opossums are usually more active at night, so homeowners often hear them after the house gets quiet.

Do not block the opening before the animal is removed. Sealing the hole too early can trap the opossum inside and create odor, damage, scratching, or a dead animal problem. The right move is a full inspection, humane removal, cleanup if needed, and exclusion after the animal is out.

Yes. Opossums are classified as fur-bearing animals in Texas, and nuisance fur-bearing animals may be taken when they are causing property damage. Relocation is not a casual DIY step. Anyone trapping and relocating nuisance furbearers needs authorization from Texas Parks and Wildlife and permission from the property owner where the animal would be released. On Point follows Texas wildlife rules and focuses on safe removal, exclusion, and prevention.

For a nuisance opossum in an attic, crawlspace, shed, wall, garage, or under a deck, most homeowners need a professional wildlife removal company. If the animal is inside a living space or there is a bite, scratch, or possible rabies exposure, contact your medical doctor right away.

Opossum droppings, urine, nesting material, and odor can contaminate attic insulation, crawlspaces, garage areas, and wall voids. Avoid touching waste or handling the animal yourself. After removal, On Point can inspect the affected area and recommend sanitation, deodorizing, or attic remediation when needed.

Opossum exclusion means closing and reinforcing the openings opossums use to enter a structure. That may include soffits, vents, roof returns, crawlspace gaps, deck openings, shed gaps, foundation openings, chimney gaps, and construction gaps. Removal gets the animal out. Exclusion helps keep the next one from moving in.

Opossums are usually defensive rather than aggressive, but they are still wild animals. They may bite or scratch if cornered, and they can bring fleas, ticks, mites, droppings, urine, odor, and nesting material into a home. Keep kids and pets away from the animal and call a professional if one is inside or around your structure.

Yes. On Point offers same-day opossum inspections in Katy. If you hear scratching, see droppings, smell odor, or watch an opossum enter the attic, call us for an inspection, removal plan, and exclusion recommendations.

Joe and his team are the absolute best in the business! I had an issue with roaches because I had bought a used refrigerator. I actually brought them into my own home. Joe came out and three treatments later they were gone. I cannot recommend him and his company enough. If you want someone who is extremely knowledgeable in all things Pest, this is your company. If I could give 100 stars I would.

I had to drop a review for On Point Pest and Environmental Services because they seriously saved the day! We had a nightmare of a fire ant problem around where my toddler plays and it was really worrying my wife! Enter Joe, the owner, who came over HIMSELF to check things out. Joe is the real deal - super knowledgeable but also totally gets the whole 'worried parent' concern. He walked me through what they were going to do to get rid of the ants, and before I knew it, my yard was a no-go zone for ant bite! My kid can play again :) What really stuck with me wasn't just that they got rid of the ants (which, don't get me wrong, is awesome), but how cool h was. Joe answered all my million questions with a smile and made sure I was totally comfortable with the plan. It felt more like having a super smart friend help out than a formal service call. Huge shoutout to Joe and his team for turning our yard back into a safe play haven. They're absolute stars in my book!
