How to use one-way exclusion funnels to remove opossums without trapping them



Like many other different kinds of rodents, opossums are also the creatures which mostly commonly like to roost, build nests and give birth to babies in the attic areas, walls and ceilings of the house. These places are very difficult to reach by man because of their narrow areas and difficult access. These are also the places which are considered the favorite ones of rodents especially for the opossums because most of the nests and breeding sites of opossums are seen in these places of a house. Sometimes their number increases so much that trapping them or killing them becomes very difficult. In these cases, it seems logical to find out ways for their safe exclusions out of the house and then sealing the places of their entry so that they may not get again into your house.

There they may also be getting enough food and space to live in, which is why their numbers go on increasing in just a few days. This technique is especially useful when there are families of opossums including the babies.
