Many customers looking for a quick fix to an animal problem will go out and purchase rat poisons or hire a Pest Control company to set up bait stations — this will cause more harm than good. We have removed multiple dead opossums from inside buildings, under decks or in crawl spaces due to poison being placed out by “Pest Control Operators”.   Some of the frequent calls we receive for dead animal removal, or odor control, are possums that have made their way into a home and get trapped inside a crawl space or under a deck and cannot escape, ultimately leading to their death.  An possum may also live out its natural life cycle and find your attic or crawlspace as a comfortable last resting place.   Additionally, we also receive calls for dead possums and they end up not being dead at all.  Moreso, playing possum.  Whatever the cause or location, the licensed Wildlife Technicians at Southern Wildlife Management can remove the dead possum, deodorize, and disinfect, so you may resume your normal activities… odor-free.

The most common dead possum removal call is for dead possum in a crawl space.  Recently we removed a momma and babies from a drop ceiling in a basement.  The sign that there was a problem was a flea infestation and an occasional dead baby possum showing up in the middle of the floor. Three companies turned down this job the fleas were overwhelming and the lingering odor was unbearable.  We can’t use a respirator, because then it would be impossible to find the dead animal.  We use our noses and years of experience to locate the animal.  Sometimes it can be easy to find, but other times it can require hours of detective work. Dead animal removal is often referred to as dead animal extraction, carcass removal, dead animal body removal, dead animal pick up, dead animal deer removal, and dead animal removal.  Each job is unique and challenging, but we do our best to find the critter that is causing the odor.  Removing dead animals in crawlspaces or decks can be difficult and hard to reach, however we have specialized tools and training to reach them.  Dead Deer often die after being struck by vehicles or impairing themselves on fences, most homeowner’s complain of a strong odor and will then investigate to find the carcass decomposing nearby.  Most dead animal pickups are done in the same day.

It is important to also inspect your home after the dead animal has been removed and the area disinfected and deodorized to prevent further animals from entering your home and possibly dying.  We find dead cats and opossums mainly in crawlspaces, most crawspace doors are not attached or non-existent, we can repair these areas to prevent future episodes.
