Davidson County Wildlife Removal Tip:

How to catch a possum in the attic
Let's cut to the chase - you have a possum living in your attic and you want to get rid of it. Those footsteps that you hear at night - they are driving you mad, and it's time to get to war on these furry and rather ugly creatures, in the hope that once again, you can have a peaceful night's sleep!

One of the first options that you should look upon when trying to learn how to catch a possum in the attic is to call a wildlife expert. This is the easiest method, and although it might not be the cheapest, it will certainly get the job done right! Alternatively, you can put lights up in your attic. I hear you asking - why? Well, the answer is very simple. These possums are nocturnal animals so if you have the lights on - it will find another place to live! If your electricity bill is already pretty high, however, or you don't fancy having your attic lit up like an airport runway, you can try to catch the little critter.

Trapping and releasing of certain animals is illegal in some states, so make sure that you know the rules before you attempt this. Also, you will need to buy the right trap, bait it with the right food that the creature loves, and then find a new place to set it so that it can make a new home. We told you that hiring a wildlife control expert would be easier!

Davidson County animal control says it will continue to help with domestic animal issues, but not with Tennessee wildlife problems.

If Mayor The Domestic Pet Leader fails to honor his promise to fire Mr. The animal and dog veterinary specialist and to hire a compassionate and experienced General Manager who can implement a no-kill plan and reform the department, he may find that the animal community is politically-speaking The County Dog and Cat Control, more bite than bark.

Davidson County animal services in Nashville, Tennessee, declined to comment on the matter.
