Animal Capture Wildlife Control received a call this morning at 4 am because an opossum had fallen through the ceiling in to the kitchen. The big kitchen light fixture had no top on it, so it was open to the attic. The opossum was walking around in the attic and it walked over the light fixture and when the light fixture was not able to support the weight of the opossum it came crashing down into the kitchen. The lights, glass, and the opossum came crashing down and made a huge noise and mess. The family was terrified and was not sure what happened. Imagine waking up to this at four in the morning? Talk about a nightmare. They came out to see what happened and seen an opossum on the kitchen floor looking back at them. They freaked out! They called me out and I responded right away. I came and removed the opossum and helped clean up the mess. I also did an inspection for the family to see where the opossum was going in and out of the attic. I found the spot and sealed it up for them right away. I also set a trap in the attic in case there were more opossum living in the attic. Job is ongoing…For more information on opossums check out our website at animalcapturewildlifecontrol.com or contact us at (310) 551-0901.
