Signs of a Possum Infestation
Possums are nocturnal animals, so it might not be immediately obvious that they’ve invaded your property. Look out for these signs:
- Noises in the Roof: Scratching, thumping, or scurrying sounds at night.
- Foul Odors: Possum urine and droppings can create an unpleasant smell.
- Property Damage: Chewed wiring, broken roof tiles, or disturbed insulation.
- Droppings: Possum droppings are often found near entry points.

Our Possum Removal Process
We follow a systematic, humane, and efficient process to ensure your possum problem is resolved effectively:
- Thorough Inspection
Our team conducts a comprehensive assessment of your property to identify entry points, nesting areas, and the extent of the infestation. - Customized Removal Plan
Based on the inspection, we develop a tailored plan that adheres to Australian laws for possum removal and relocation. - Safe and Humane Trapping
Using safe and humane traps, we capture the possums without causing them harm. - Relocation
Captured possums are relocated to a suitable environment, at least 50 meters from your property, as required by law. - Sealing Entry Points
To prevent future infestations, we seal off all potential entry points and advise you on further preventative measures. - Follow-Up Support
We offer follow-up services to ensure your property remains possum-free.
Why Is Professional Possum Removal Necessary?
Attempting to remove possums on your own can be risky and illegal. Possums are protected under Australian law, and handling them without proper authorization can result in fines. Additionally, possums can become aggressive if they feel threatened, posing a danger to you and your family.
By choosing Detox Pest Control, you can rest assured that the job will be done safely, legally, and effectively.
How to Prevent Possum Infestations
While we’re always here to help, prevention is the best way to avoid a possum problem. Here are some tips to keep these critters away:
- Secure Your Roof: Regularly inspect your roof for holes or broken tiles and fix them promptly.
- Trim Overhanging Branches: Possums often use tree branches to access roofs. Keep branches trimmed and away from your property.
- Use Possum-Proof Barriers: Install barriers on trees or fences that possums might use as pathways.
- Store Food Securely: Keep pet food and garbage in sealed containers to avoid attracting possums.
- Install Sensor Lights: Possums are nocturnal and dislike bright lights. Sensor lights can deter them from approaching your property.
