We were really happy when Chris found the little space where 2 possums were entering & exiting our roof cavity for nearly 2 years. Other tradespeople had tried unsuccessfully. Chris sorted out our furry friends and fixed the holes, without relocating the possums. He was professional and prompt. Would definitely recommend Chris’s and Possumrid. .Posted on Google Kim GreenwayTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thank you Chris!

We contacted Chris after a negative experience with a previous possum removal vendor… Chris managed to find the possum using a cage overnight and came for pick up the next day. He also found and repaired the hole that the possum was entering through. He was thorough, knowledgeable and prompt and explained each step before he started the process and advised on the costs upfront. We are happy with the professional service provided by Chris, especially after the experience we had by the previous vendor. Thank you ChrisPosted on Google Andrew YoungTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a family of possums in our roof. Chris installed possum boxes in the trees and fixed the roof. Me and the possums are both very happy.

FAQ
Common Questions About Possum Removal
Possum Rid covers your local area and 150+ surrounding suburbs.
Do you /can you kill a possum?
Killing or hurting a possum that has entered your property it is against the law. They are a protected species.
Can you remove a possum?
We can only remove the possum a specified distance from where we catch it. It is a territorial animal.
Will it get back into my roof?
No, once the possum has been removed, we will repair the hole(s) where it is currently getting in and any that it could possibly get through later.
What damage will a possum cause?
Possums will urinate through your roof leaving yellow stains on your ceiling or walls. Possums can get caught in lighting wires in your roof and damage lights. They won’t normally eat the wires but rats will. Both possums and rats are a fire hazard for this reason.
Can possum boxes work?
Yes they can because the possum has a natural instinct to try and re-enter “his home” in your roof. This is where another form of housing should be tried, in the form of possum boxes. These nesting boxes can be put in a tree or any safe comfortable area. Urbanization sprawl has made it harder for possums to survive in their natural habitat.
Can I stop possums accessing the roof?
Cut back tree branches that give possums access to your roof: 1.5m minimum from guttering.
