Call (470) 329-1949 to arrange an inspection and discuss possum control in Cumming.
Signs of Possum Activity Around Your Property
Possums are scavengers that may visit properties with accessible trash, pet food or sheltered spaces. A disturbed outdoor trash bin or recurring garden damage can indicate activity from possums or other larger wildlife. Identifying the animal matters because each species may require a different removal method.
Repeated nighttime sounds around a deck, crawlspace, attic or other protected area warrant a professional property inspection. We look beyond the noise or sighting to determine which animal is present, where it may be entering and what’s drawing wildlife to the property.

Wood-Destroying Insects

Infestations of wood-destroying insects often go unnoticed as these pests burrow into the wood of your structure, leaving little trace of themselves until serious damage begins to accumulate. Both termites and carpenter bees can chew away at the wooden structures on your property until they are hollow and at risk of collapse. Though many individuals may consider DIY termite control treatments for these pests, these often don’t remove the source of your infestation and leave you with prolonged issues and costly damages over time.
Instead of attempting to remove wood-destroying insects by yourself, contact Protector Pest Solutions for regular inspections and assistance with active infestations. Our team will stop at nothing to remove these pests and leave your property pest-free.

Stinging Insects

When it comes to stinging insects on your property, DIY pest control is not the best way to take care of these pests. Attempting stinging insect control all by yourself puts you at risk of stings and the potential for allergic reactions at the hands of these aggressive pests. Stinging insect nest removal is especially dangerous, as these insects are highly territorial and protective over their nesting areas.
The most common types of stinging insects you need to look out for on your property include hornets, wasps, and yellow jackets. Any of these pests can swarm, deliver painful stings, and terrorize those on your property with their presence.

Rodents

Rodents are well-known as one of the most unhygienic pests that you can end up with on your property. Several different types of rodents may invade human structures, but rats and mice are the most commonly encountered. If you don’t treat infestations of these pests quickly, your chances of picking up a sickness or incurring property damage increase greatly. After all, rodents carry and transmit serious illnesses such as salmonella, plague, hantavirus, and tularemia that may even become airborne around your property.
Additionally, rodents are incredibly prolific. What starts as a handful of rats or mice on your property rapidly becomes a full-blown infestation. And because rodents tend to hide in hard-to-reach areas around your property, professional rodent control is needed to eliminate them. DIY approaches are often less than effective and leave you at risk of prolonged pest infestations.
Protector Pest Solutions is ready to help you with your rodent control needs. Contact us the moment you suspect these pests are invading your property to take advantage of expert removal.
Our Possum Removal, Exclusion & Cleanup Process
Effective wildlife control addresses the current animal and the conditions that made the property accessible. Our process moves from assessment through removal, exclusion, cleanup and documentation, with each step based on the conditions at the home.
360-Degree Property Inspection
We begin with a 360-degree inspection of the property. This assessment helps identify the animal involved, likely access points and outdoor conditions that may attract wildlife. We also examine vulnerable areas such as construction gaps, roof returns, vents and openings near crawlspaces.
Once we identify the animal, we use humane trapping and removal methods suited to the species and property conditions. Confirming the source of the activity allows us to choose the appropriate approach before removal begins.
Wildlife Exclusion
Removal alone doesn’t correct the openings or attractants that leave a home vulnerable to later wildlife activity. Wildlife exclusion addresses the access points animals use to enter protected areas. Depending on the inspection findings, our work can include sealing construction gaps, roof returns and vents.
Cleanup & Service Reporting
When waste or nesting material is present, the exclusion process can include cleanup and decontamination. We also provide detailed service reports documenting the work performed. Homeowners receive a clear record of the conditions addressed during service.
