Efficient Opossum Removal in St. Louis, MO

Prompt Scheduling • Business-Focused Service • Flexible Coordination

Cooler October nights can bring more opossum activity as fall starts in St. Louis.

Holper’s begins with a paid ground-trapping inspection of travel paths and shelter areas.

Our opossum control process for St. Louis

A clear, step-by-step approach to identifying problems and guiding you toward the right solution.

The first step is a $129 ground-trapping inspection. A tech checks the yard, travel paths, and shelter areas.

The findings guide trap sites and later visits. Live cage traps are the usual method and may be placed along the opossum’s travel path. Lethal methods are considered only when necessary under Missouri Department of Conservation guidelines.

Trap setup, checks, and pickups have separate charges. Repair work gets a separate quote for approval.

Excellent response by company. Kept me informed. Explained process. Employees that completed work were excellent and committed to solving issues. First individual was Zach. He has done work previously and is an excellent communicator keeping me updated. Last individual was Kyle. Professional, explained process and response was quick and complete. He did an excellent repair to damage on the outside of my home done by invasive animals. Would use Holpers again if need ever arises again.

We had a hornets nest developing on our playground equipment and went on vacation to come back to it being the size of a grapefruit. Called to have it removed and Kaleb was out the next day and saved the day! He also sprayed the yard. Kaleb was very professional and informative. We will definitely be using your services from now on!

In time and great job! Even helped my son move a heavy fountain out of the back of my van so he could spray everywhere. (Had spiders in my van)

This company does an amazing job. Adam is great and Paige is the greatest. Super nice people. Who treat you like family love them.. I came back to them they helped with a big issue in the past. There is a lot of companies out there but this one is honest and up front and doesn't over charge like other places. Keep up the great work
