Thumping and running across the ceiling after dark is the most common reason people in Southern Brisbane call us. It usually means a brushtail possum has found a gap in the roof and moved into the warm, dry space above your rooms. Once a possum settles in, it tends to come back night after night, and the noise, smell and mess only build up over time.
We answer the phone, ask what you are hearing and where, and give you upfront pricing. Then we book a nearby independent crew to come out. The crew we book starts by finding how the possum is getting in. They check the roof line, the eaves, the vents and the spots where the roof meets a wall, then look inside the ceiling space.
- A check of the roof line and ceiling space to find the way in
- Removal of the possum from the roof or ceiling
- Sealing of the main entry with sturdy mesh or sheeting
- Notes on other gaps that could let a possum back in
- A clear price agreed before any work starts
Once the entry is found, the possum is moved out of the roof space and that gap is closed so it cannot return the same way. Many homes have more than one weak spot, so the crew will talk you through what they found and what they suggest. You decide what goes ahead, and nothing extra is done without your say.
Visits are booked same-day or next-day where the run allows, usually in daylight so the roof can be checked properly. To book possum removal anywhere in Southern Brisbane, call 07 3543 7766 and tell us your suburb and what you have been hearing.
