FAQ
What Our Customers Say
Rated 4.9 stars from 200+ Google reviews across Sydney.
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.
