Possum Removal in Tugun is usually a two-visit job. Possums sleep in the roof by day and head out after dark to feed, so the aim is to let the possum leave on its own and then stop it coming back. When you ring 07 3543 7768, we ask about the noises, the time they start and what the roof is made of, so the crew we book turns up with the right gear.
On the first visit, the crew goes into the roof space through the manhole and looks for droppings, urine stains, flattened insulation and the worn, greasy paths possums leave along the timber. Outside, they walk the roofline to find where those paths lead. Beach cottages often have gaps at the roof ends and under loose flashing, while tiled homes on the hill tend to have gaps at ridge caps and valleys.
- Roof space checked for signs of possums and their paths
- Main entry found and a one-way door fitted over it
- Smaller gaps sealed so the door is the only way out
- Check for young before the door goes on
- Second visit to remove the door and close the final gap
Most possums leave within a few nights. When the roof has been quiet for a while, the crew comes back, removes the door and seals that last opening with mesh or flashing. If the noise starts up again in between, call us and the crew will look for a second gap they may have missed.
The price for both visits is given upfront on the phone, and extras like a clean-up or branch trimming are only added if you want them. We book possum removal across Tugun and nearby suburbs. Call 07 3543 7768 and we will book a local crew.
