The behavior of a massive scalar particle on the spacetime surrounding a monopole is studied from a quantum mechanical point of view. All the boundary conditions necessary to turn the spatial portion of the wave operator self-adjoint are found and their importance to the quantum interpretation of singularities is emphasized.
