Chicago possum removal tip of the month: Is it safe to handle a opossum with bare hands? - Handling a wild animal with your bare hands is not a good idea, and there are many reasons why. First, while the diseases opossums carry that can be transmitted to people are few and far between, they do exist. Some, like leptospirosis, are bacterial, and can be transmitted through infected waste material from the animal, even if it is nowhere in sight. Diseases like this, plus a variety of eco parasites, like fleas and ticks, are one reason why you should never handle an opossum with your bare hands. That being said, the more immediate danger is for the animal to bite you or scratch you. When you are able to put your hands on a wild animal, you are putting yourself close enough for it to attack you. This is why opossums that need to be removed from places in the home are often done so with the use of a snare pole to keep the distance for the handler.
