Why Us
Why Columbus Picks Jarrod's for Opossum Removal
Free Inspection, Price First
A licensed technician checks your crawl space, deck, garage and shed for the den and the way in. The inspection and estimate are free, and you get the price before any work starts.
Humane Trapping and Release
We catch opossums in cage traps that don't harm them. Healthy opossums are released far from homes. Then we seal the gaps they used to get in or under.
Same-Day and Next-Day Service
Most opossum calls get a technician out the same day or the next. Our wildlife technicians are licensed in Georgia and Alabama, and we've trapped opossums around Columbus since 2009.
Take Away the Food
Opossums come for easy food like pet bowls, open trash and fallen fruit. Bring pet food in at night and keep lids tight on your cans. An opossum that goes limp is playing dead, so leave it alone and keep pets away.
Stacey C.Oct 2026 Very customer friendly, listens intently to any issues that may have come up since last treatment. Works quickly and efficiently.

Mike J.Oct 2026 
D.J. S.Oct 2026 James notifies me the day before he is coming. I appreciate this courtesy, because it gives me a heads up before I am notified by the cameras that someone is in my yard. He sprays all of the designated areas each time he comes. It must be working, because I have not had any bugs inside of the house.
RickeyOct 2026 The service is always done on time and on the day they say there will be at the house. If we have questions they always take the time to talk to us. Great job today.

Service Areas
Opossum Removal Across Columbus and the Chattahoochee Valley
Opossums live in neighborhoods all over the Chattahoochee Valley and are active at night all year. They look for dark, quiet places to rest, like crawl spaces, garages, sheds and the space under decks and porches. Late winter and spring are busy, because that's when mothers carry their young.
We handle opossums in Columbus, Phenix City, Auburn, Opelika and LaGrange. In Middle Georgia, we cover Macon, Warner Robins and Perry. Our office is on Kolb Avenue in Columbus.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to Your Opossum Removal Questions
Here is what Columbus homeowners ask us most.
How much does opossum removal cost?
It depends on where the opossum is, how many there are and how many gaps need sealing. Your technician inspects first and gives you the price before any work starts. The estimate is free, with no obligation.
How fast can you come out?
We offer same-day and next-day service across Columbus, Phenix City, Auburn and the rest of the Chattahoochee Valley. Call us and we'll give you the first open time.
Is it safe to remove an opossum myself?
We don't recommend it. Opossums have 50 sharp teeth and will show them when cornered. A bite can be painful and, in some cases, dangerous.
What happens to the opossum after you catch it?
Healthy opossums are released unharmed in an area over 20 miles away, away from homes and businesses. Only opossums that are sick or show signs of rabies are put down.
Why is an opossum in my garage or shed?
Opossums look for dark, quiet places to rest and raise their young. Garages, sheds and the space under a house are common spots. Garbage and pet food left outside also draw them in.
