Possum removal is the main job we book in Mount Gravatt. If you hear heavy thumping across the ceiling after dark, or footsteps running along the roof line just before sunrise, there is a good chance a brushtail possum has moved into your roof space. They like warm, dry, quiet places to sleep during the day, and a house with even a small gap under the tiles can look like a good home to them.
When you call, we ask what you are hearing, where the noise seems loudest and what your roof is made of. We give you upfront pricing on the phone, then book a local crew for a time that suits you. The crew checks the roof cavity and the outside of the house to find how the possum is getting in. Most homes have one main entry that the possum uses every night.
The crew fits a one-way door over that entry. The possum leaves to feed after dark and cannot get back through the flap. Once the roof is empty, the crew takes the door off and seals the gap with mesh and fixings that suit your roof. Any other weak spots they find can be closed at the same time.
- A roof cavity check to find the entry point
- A one-way door fitted over the main gap
- Sealing of the entry once the roof is clear
- Advice on branches and other ways onto the roof
