Wall Cavity Possum Removal in Tugun is for the less common, but very stressful, case where a possum ends up inside a wall. This usually happens when a possum drops down from the roof space into the gap between the inner and outer walls, or climbs in through a gap near the eaves. You may hear scratching and thumping inside the wall itself, often low down, rather than above the ceiling.
The crew we book first works out where the possum is and how it got in. They check the roof space above that wall and look for a gap at the top of the cavity. In many cases, the possum can climb back up and out if a one-way door is fitted where it entered. Where it cannot climb out, the crew may need to cut a small access hole in the plaster, and they will talk that through with you before doing anything.
- Noise traced to the right section of wall
- Roof space above the wall checked for the entry point
- One-way door fitted where the possum got in
- Small access hole only if there is no other way
- Gap sealed once the wall and roof are quiet
It helps to act early. A possum stuck in a wall cavity can cause damage as it tries to get out, and the sooner it can leave, the better for everyone. Keep pets away from that wall, and do not try to cut into the plaster yourself.
Once the possum has gone, the crew seals the gap so the possum has no way back in. We book wall cavity possum removal across Tugun with upfront pricing. Call 07 3543 7768, tell us which wall the noise is in, and we will book a nearby crew.
