Possum Control and Removal in Adelaide
Possums might look cute, but they can become a serious nuisance when they invade your home. Whether they’re rummaging through bins or nesting in your roof, these nocturnal creatures can create noise, damage property, and pose health risks. At Oz Pest Adelaide, we specialise in eco-friendly possum removal, drawing on years of experience to ensure your home remains safe and pest-free.
Signs You Need Possum Control
Scratching and Thumping in the Roof
Possums are active at night. Unusual noises overhead can signal nesting or movement in the ceiling.
Strong, Unpleasant Odours
Possum urine can create a lingering smell in confined areas such as the roof cavity or under the house.
Droppings and Mess
Possum droppings are usually larger than rodent droppings and can collect around entry points or nesting sites.
Types of Possums We Handle
Common Brushtail Possum
Common Ringtail Possum
Quick Tips to Prevent Possum Infestations
Seal Entry Points
Patch holes in roofs, eaves, and vents. Ensure all gaps are sealed to block re-entry.
Remove Food Sources
Keep bins tightly sealed and store pet food indoors. Regularly clean up fallen fruit from your yard.
Trim Overhanging Branches
Possums often use branches as bridges to access roofs. Prune back any close to your home.
Install Possum-Proof Barriers
Fitting fences or mesh barriers can deter possums from making a beeline for your property.
