Opossums raise their second litter of the year through summer. Juvenile opossums dispersing from their mother are frequently found in unexpected places, including inside garages, under appliances, and in crawlspaces.

Opossum Removal in Horse Creek, Wyoming — Local Context

Opossums were introduced to California in the early 20th century and have since spread throughout the Pacific Coast states. California, Oregon, and Washington now have well-established opossum populations that regularly enter structures through damaged vents, crawlspace gaps, and broken foundation screens. Western opossums behave similarly to eastern populations and are year-round concerns in the mild Pacific Coast climate.

All wildlife removal in Wyoming is regulated by the Wyoming Game and Fish Department. Our Horse Creek contractor is fully licensed under the Wyoming Game and Fish Department and uses only permitted, humane removal methods.

Frequently Asked Questions — Opossum Removal in Horse Creek

How much does opossum removal cost in Horse Creek, Wyoming? +
Opossum trapping and removal in Wyoming typically costs $150–$400+. Sealing the entry point where opossums access your Horse Creek crawlspace or deck adds $150–$400+. Long-term contamination cleanup in areas where opossums have been living adds additional cost depending on how long the animal was present.
Are opossums in Wyoming dangerous? +
Opossums rarely carry rabies due to their low body temperature, but they do carry leptospirosis and harbor parasites including fleas, ticks, and mites. A female opossum with young in her pouch requires careful professional handling. Their droppings contaminate insulation in Horse Creek crawlspaces and attics and require professional-grade sanitization.
Why do opossums keep getting under my house in Horse Creek? +
Opossums do not dig — they use existing openings. Crawlspace vents, gaps in skirting, and open foundation areas in Horse Creek homes are the primary access points. Because they are opportunistic and nomadic, multiple different opossums may use the same entry point over time. Permanent sealing of all ground-level openings is the only lasting solution.
Will an opossum in Horse Creek leave on its own? +
Possibly, but not reliably. Opossums can be nomadic and sometimes move on within days. However, a warm, sheltered crawlspace in Horse Creek may be occupied continuously by successive animals unless the entry point is sealed. Females with young will not leave until pups are fully weaned. Professional removal guarantees the animal is gone and the entry is sealed.
When are opossums most active in Wyoming? +
Opossums are active year-round in Wyoming and can be found in structures in any season. They breed twice per year — females carry young in the pouch from January through April for the first litter, and from June through August for the second. Cold weather drives them more aggressively into crawlspaces and attics. Mothers with pouch young require trained handling and are the most common opossum situation in Horse Creek homes.
