Opossums, while beneficial to the environment, can become a nuisance when they invade homes and properties. These nocturnal marsupials are known for scavenging through garbage, damaging gardens, and nesting in attics or under houses.
Worked with Jay and Christian from Titan over the last two years. Treated the yard over the summer (great, effective sprays), and most recently contracted them for indoor pest/rodent control. Very comprehensive customer service + responsive communication. Prices seem appropriate for great valued services! Will use them for any service that the home needs.

I initially used Titan to get rid of my mole problem, but I just upgraded to additional pest protection. The tech that came out, J Kesterson, was professional and knowledgeable, and he explained clearly the additional services I’m getting. I’m very pleased with Titan Pest and Wildlife and highly recommend them.
Response from the owner: Hi, Ellyssia. Your feedback is highly appreciated. Thank you for the review!
We had a multiple types of pest issue in our attic and yard. Jay made the 2+ hour drive up to our house and did a thorough inspection, after which he walked me through all the areas they could address on our 3 acres. The technician, Christian, showed up on time for the initial and follow-up treatment of our attic (mice, squirrels, and raccoon evidence) and our yard (loads of mole tunnels throughout the property). He was very professional, thorough, and always asked if there was anything more I needed him to check out/look at. Titan is also spraying and treating the inside and outside of our house for spiders, bugs, etc. - which I have seen a major improvement in! I am very happy so far and look forward to their monthly treatments - peace of mind for me and my family!

Prompt and did what they said.
Great company with fantastic customer service, they solved all my pest issues and are really easy to work with
Called early in morning and got an answer. They were out here in less than 30 minutes later to relocate Racoon that had been getting into my coop. Even got a snip of the gps where it was relocated.
I had an issue with the previous owner, but the new owner is very responsive!
They did a great job and guaranteed their work. Highly recommend.
Easy to work with and schedule, and great prices.
My wife & I love this company! Great customer service & affordable! Will definitely be referring our friends and family!
Titan is my go to for all my real estate clients. Very professional and easy to work with.
Great service and did the job right the first time. I’ll be calling them for my next service to keep my property free of pests. Thanks guys.
Fantastic company and great owners!
These guys were amazing. Quality work done efficiently. Will definitely be the people we call if we ever need to get rid of any more pests.
I was having a recurring ant infestation around my windows. No matter what I tried they kept coming back. After Titan came by, no more ants. They were very professional and on time. Took care of the bugs with great service.
Everyone I've interacted with has been great, and the price is good, too. The mice that had moved in have been evicted, and I haven't had any issues since. The guys that come out to my house have been quick and non-intrusive while I work from home as well. Highly recommend!

These guys are awesome!! We had a few mice in our house we bought (it was built in the 50s). They quickly came out, found the access points, and sealed those points of entry. Very reasonably priced and the gentlemen who came out were great! 10/10 recommend.

I was so impressed with the responsiveness I experienced using Titan. Everyone was so friendly and professional from my initial consult down to the numerous panicked phone calls I made during the catch period. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them and if necessary, I would definitely use them again. Who knew raccoons could create such damage?
Response from the owner: Hi, Sharon. Your feedback is highly appreciated. Thank you for the review!
They did a good job installing my holiday lights
Response from the owner: Hi, Bibian. We appreciate the kind words and are glad we could provide you with a positive experience!
My appointment period was estimated to be between 1&4. Unlike most businesses that give you a range, he showed up at 130 after a quick call. He answered all my questions, gave me several options to pick from and a firm estimate. I agreed to get it done asap and he had the equipment available to do it right then. The whole appointment took about 1 1/2 hrs and he was done. The estimate was better than most other’s that I’ve gotten. Very happy with the experience.
Response from the owner: Hi, Justine. Thanks for taking the time to share your positive experience. We truly appreciate it!
Very responsive and professional
Response from the owner: Hi, Jorge. We are thrilled to learn that you had a positive experience with us!

Hung Christmas lights, did a wonderful job!! So pleased with how it looks and these 2 young men were so professional and courteous, I expected I will call them for other things. Will definitely tell everyone who did this.
Response from the owner: Hi, Laura. We appreciate the kind words and are glad we could provide you with a positive experience!
This was my first time using Titan and they far exceeded my expectations! I contacted Titan as we discovered we had 2 very large, guinea pig looking animals in our garage. We had seen them go in and out of their hiding place and no clue what they were. I figured I would have to wait to get someone out, and they put me on the schedule the same day. David came out and looked around and talked about our wildlife/rodent problem....appears to be two pack rats. He explained in detail what he was going to do with the traps and all. Typically they leave and send you an estimate and, once approved, they come back to do all the work. I asked if he could go ahead and put the bait and traps out now, and I would sign and pay, or whatever was needed. as we were just anxious to get these rodents taken care of, due to the inconvenience and damage they have caused (including eating through my husbands turn signal wire on his car). He took the time to contact the office to see if he could do this, prepare the estimate for my signature, go over in detail the terms of the contract and warranty, and then I paid over the phone. Very easy. I was so appreciative of his willingness to try to get this done quickly for us, even though it isn't their usual policy. He then set everything out and told me if I felt like I needed service before my scheduled 7 day time to just call and they would work with me. I loved the experience, or as much as you can love having 2 very large pack rats in your garage (think guinea pig size, lol). David was very timely, knowledgeable, and respectful. When he left he even shook my hand. Titan has definitely earned any future business of mine and I will definitely be recommending them to others!**Update: After no movement on the camera for almost 72 hours (and they set off the camera pretty much every 5 minutes prior to Titan coming out so we were cautiously optimistic they both had died), one resurfaced at 3am this morning, the one that has had a trap stuck on him for that entire 72 hours, and he can't get into the only food source, aka the bait trap, because of the trap being stuck on his head. So, I contacted Titan this morning just to see if anyone could come back out before the scheduled Thursday time, figuring I probably would be out of luck. The lady that answered said that while David's schedule was pretty full, she would have him out sometime today, just couldn't say when.I wish more businesses operated this way.
Response from the owner: Hi, Haley. Thanks for taking the time to share your positive experience. We truly appreciate it!

Why Get Opossums Professionally Removed?
Professionals possess extensive knowledge about opossum behavior and habits, allowing them to locate and remove them. They can correctly identify the presence of opossums and distinguish them from similar pests like rats or raccoons. Safety is a significant concern, as opossums can be aggressive when cornered and may carry diseases such as leptospirosis or parasites like fleas and ticks. Professionals are trained to handle them safely, using the right tools and protective gear to ensure their safety and the humane treatment of the animal.
Professionals employ effective and humane methods, including live trapping and safe relocation to suitable habitats far from residential areas, ensuring the animals do not return. Additionally, experts can identify and seal entry points to prevent future infestations and advise on maintaining a pest-free environment, such as securing garbage cans and removing food sources.
Understanding Opossums
Appearance and Behavior:
- Opossums have a white to greyish body, a pointed face, and a long, hairless, prehensile tail.
- They are typically about the size of a domestic cat, weighing between 4 to 14 pounds.
- Opossums are nocturnal and solitary animals, often seen at night searching for food.
Common Signs of Opossum Activity:
- Noise: Scratching, scurrying, or thumping sounds in the attic or under the house, especially at night.
- Droppings: Large, brown, and tubular feces found in or around the home.
- Damage: Torn insulation, chewed electrical wires, and overturned garbage cans.
The Opossum Removal Process
- Initial Inspection: The professional will thoroughly inspect your property to determine the extent of the opossum problem. They will look for common signs of opossum activity, including droppings, tracks, and nesting sites.
- Setting Traps: Based on the inspection, traps are strategically placed near entry points or along the opossum’s travel paths. Effective bait, such as fruits or pet food, attracts the opossum into the traps.
- Removal and Relocation: Once the opossum is trapped, the professional will safely handle the cage to avoid stress or injury to the animal. The opossum is then relocated safely to a suitable natural habitat from your property.
- Exclusion and Prevention: all potential entry points are sealed using materials like steel mesh or hardware cloth after removal. The professional will offer recommendations on preventing future opossum invasions, such as securing trash cans, clearing yard debris, and removing outdoor pet food.
Benefits of Professional Opossum Removal
Hiring a professional ensures the problem is handled efficiently, reducing homeowners’ stress and anxiety. Many professional services offer guarantees or follow-up visits to ensure the opossum problem is fully resolved. Professionals can address the issue more quickly than DIY methods, saving time and effort. They handle all aspects of the removal process, from inspection to prevention, ensuring a thorough solution.
Professional removal minimizes the risk of disease transmission and injury from handling wild animals. Professionals can also advise on or assist with cleaning and sanitizing areas affected by opossum activity.
