Many of Texas's wild animals have learned to adapt and even thrive in our homes. For example some wildlife have found
that attics make great places to live. Other animals find refuge under homes or porches. Invariably,
these animals cause damage. Rodents, like squirrels and rats, love to chew on electrical wires once in an attic, and this causes a serious fire
hazard. Raccoons can cause serious contamination in an attic with their droppings and parasites. Same goes for bat or bird colonies. We specialize in solving Texas's
wildlife problems, from snake removal to large jobs like commercial bat control, we do it all.
We handle every aspect of wildlife control. We are fully equipped to work on any project, large or small. Some of our services include:
We do not handle dog or cat problems. If you need assistance with a domestic animal, such as a dog or a cat, you need to call your local Tarrant county animal services for assistance. They can help you out with issues such as stray dogs, stray cats, spay & neuter programs, vaccinations, licenses, pet adoption, bite reports, deceased pets, lost pets, local animal complaints and to report neglected or abused animals. There is no free Hurst animal control for wildlife issues.

What attracts opossums?
Opossums mostly act as a pest control by eating small rodents. However, at times they may start creating huge nuisance. They usually eat everything and this quality makes them a great scavenger.
Opossum Nuisance Issues
Opossums act like the environment cleaners. They feed on the fallen fruits on the ground, pesky bugs, snails, and rummage on decaying foods. Opossums, however, can become a problem when they turn your residential yard into their nest. These creatures can make a huge mess in the yard, cause damage to the garden lawn, dig burrows, attack your chicken coops and threaten your pets.
Moreover, opossums can also pose as a health threat as they are known to be transmitters of some diseases to pets and people. They are carriers of diseases such as tularemia, leptospirosis, coccidiosis and tuberculosis. They may also serve as hosts to lice, mites, fleas and ticks. If you are a horse owner then beware of the opossums as they may carry parasites that can cause serious diseases among horses.
Deterring Opossums - Knowing What Attracts Them
While opossums can be of great help to keep away mice, snails, pests, and other insects, oftentimes they can become a problem. The best thing to do to avoid dealing with the headaches caused by these creatures is to make sure that your yard or home does not in any way attract them.
Opossums will actually gladly eat just about anything. They are omnivores with a wide range of diet from fruits to vegetables to meat and your leftovers. The following are few of the things that may attract opossums instantly specifically:
1) Anything sweet - Opossums have a sweet tooth, just like most people do. This means that foods that have a sweeter taste to them, such as fruits, are the first kinds of things that will attract this animal.
2) Meat - The opossum also greatly enjoys meat products, so things that are left over or that are available such as chicken, tuna, or beef, become the perfect staple for an open opossum to eat.
3) Strong smell - Anything that has a strong odor is going to attract this animal the most. This is why your open garbage can will become a place that is incredibly enticing to the animal. Most garbage cans have a very strong odor, one which human beings hate, but opossums find as absolutely fantastic. So make sure to keep your garbage cans tightly closed and use lid covers in order to avoid attracting opossums to your yard.
4) Your Pet Food - Opossums will also find your cat or dog's food as a tasty meal. They also like to nibble on bird seed. So make sure not to leave your pet food in the open at night and empty your bird feeders each night.
5) Your Garden of Fruits and Vegetables - Opossums love fruits and vegetables. This makes your garden a perfect spot for them to get readily available food resources. They are fruit and vegetable lovers and they like to munch on carrots, corn, beans, tomatoes, nuts, and berries.
