Is Wildlife NY licensed for opossum removal?
Yes. Wildlife NY holds a New York State DEC Nuisance Wildlife Control license. All work in Parkchester is performed by licensed, insured professionals using humane methods.
Are opossums actually beneficial in the Bronx?
Opossums consume large quantities of ticks, which helps suppress tick populations in park-adjacent Bronx neighborhoods. They also eat cockroaches, slugs, and overripe fruit, making them minor scavengers rather than destructive pests in most cases.
What should I do if I find an opossum in my Bronx basement?
An opossum in the basement has almost certainly entered through a gap in the foundation or an open window well. Close off the area after dark when the opossum has likely left to forage, then seal the entry. Wildlife NY can assist with entry point identification.
How do I tell if the sounds in my Bronx attic are an opossum rather than a raccoon?
Opossums move slowly and create a dragging, shuffling sound in attics, often at night. Raccoons are heavier and more chaotic. Opossums also tend to use attics as temporary shelters rather than permanent dens, so the activity pattern may be intermittent.
