A possum in the house is hard to ignore. The thumping starts at dusk, the smell creeps into the bedrooms and a stain slowly spreads across the ceiling. When you call us, we ask a few questions about your home and what you are hearing, then give you upfront pricing. We book an independent crew who works near Graceville to take it from there.
On the first visit, the crew climbs into the roof cavity and looks for the signs a possum leaves behind: droppings, stained insulation, rub marks on timber and a worn path to the way out. Then they walk around the outside of the house and match that path to a gap in the roof line, the eaves or the walls.
A one-way door is fitted over the main gap. The possum can head out to feed at night but cannot get back in. Once the house has been quiet for a few nights, the crew returns, takes the door away and seals the gap with mesh, flashing or timber. Any smaller weak spots found along the way are sealed too, so another possum does not move straight in. Many homes also have a smaller gap or two, and the crew points these out for sealing.
