Opossum Control

Opossums under your house or in your attic? We trap and remove opossums in Garland and Dallas, then secure access points to keep them out.
Opossums are frequent visitors in North Texas yards, especially around decks, sheds, and crawl spaces. Topper’s Wildlife Removal provides opossum control in Garland, TX, and the Dallas area, offering humane trapping and exclusion to protect your home.

Our team conducts a detailed inspection to locate dens and travel paths. We then set up humane traps to safely remove the opossums from your property. Once removed, we seal off access points to prevent re-entry.

While opossums rarely damage property, they create noise, mess, and odors. We’ll also share tips to reduce attractants and keep your home safe.

If you’ve seen opossums around your home or heard movement under your deck, contact Topper’s Wildlife Removal for trusted opossum control in Garland and the Dallas metro.

    My daughter was having a huge rabbit problem on her corner lot. The rabbits were destroying the shrubs that had to be replaced twice. We called Toppers & have been very pleased. Thomas is very strategic about trap placement & responds quickly when you let him know the trap has an animal. They remove the animal & reset trap(s) the same day. If you don’t call/text the traps are checked every couple of days anyway. They have caught over a dozen rabbits (and one rat) so far. (They trap for many different varmints.) Toppers is dependable, honest, affordable & does a great job. Highly recommend! Janice C.
