Photo Album: Opossum Getting Under the Deck in Spring Lake, NJ
After seeing an opossum running across his yard and going under the deck, this client in Spring Lake, NJ called Little Rascals for help and we were sent out.
Going Under
The opossum was squeezing under the owners deck and harboring underneath it.
Around the Perimeter
So we installed Dig Defense® around the entire perimeter of the deck except for one area.
Dig Defense® Protects
Dig Defense® is a below-ground fence system that is 15 inches deep, 4 feet across, and protects structures against invasive nuisance wildlife and feral animals.
Around the Perimeter
Afterward, we installed a positive set over the exposed opening. A positive set is comprised of a nose cone that is attached to a two-gaited, heavy-duty device. It's called a positive set, because we are positive that the opossum will enter our device.
Once We Retrieve the Opossum
Once we safely retrieve the opossum, we will relocate it to a new, humane location and install another portion of Dig Defense® over the opening.
