Signs of a Possum Infestation
Possums are nocturnal creatures that often leave behind clear signs of their presence. Look out for the following:
- Noisy Nights: Scratching, hissing, or running sounds from your roof or walls.
- Droppings: Possum droppings are dark, oval-shaped, and often found near entry points.
- Unpleasant Odors: A strong, musky smell can indicate a possum nesting in your property.
- Damage: Chewed wires, broken vents, and gnawed wood.
- Tracks: Paw prints or greasy marks on walls and ceilings.
If you notice any of these signs, call us immediately at 0488 844 985 to schedule an inspection.
Our Possum Removal Process
At Detox Pest Control, we follow a structured and ethical approach to ensure the safe removal of possums from your property:
1. Inspection and Assessment
We start with a comprehensive inspection of your property to identify:
- The species of possum causing the issue.
- Entry points and nesting areas.
- The extent of the infestation.
2. Customized Removal Plan
Based on our findings, we develop a customized plan that prioritizes the safety of the possum and your property.
3. Humane Trapping
We use certified, humane traps to capture possums without causing them harm. Once captured, possums are relocated as per local wildlife regulations.
4. Sealing Entry Points
To prevent future infestations, we seal all possible entry points using durable materials.
5. Post-Removal Cleaning and Sanitization
Possums can leave behind droppings, urine, and nesting materials. We clean and sanitize the affected areas to eliminate health risks and odors.

Attempting to remove possums on your own can lead to:
