A possum living in your roof for a few months can leave a surprising amount of mess. Droppings gather along beams and in the insulation, urine soaks into timber and plaster, and nests of leaves and shredded material build up in warm corners. We book independent crews across South Brisbane to clear it out once the possum has gone, with upfront pricing before the visit.
The crew wears gloves and masks and works through the affected area by hand and with a vacuum made for dusty roof spaces. Light fittings and manholes are covered so dust stays in the roof. Droppings and nesting material are bagged, and small sections of badly soaked insulation are lifted out. The area is then treated to help break down urine and reduce the smell that drifts into the rooms below.
A clean-up is most useful after the entry points are sealed, so a new possum does not move straight back in and start again. Many people book proofing and a clean-up on the same visit. If the ceiling below is badly stained or sagging, the crew will point it out so you can decide on next steps. Rat droppings found during the clean-up are pointed out too.
