Once a possum has been living in a roof for a while, it leaves plenty behind. Droppings build up around the spot it sleeps in, and urine soaks into the insulation and ceiling boards. In Birkdale homes, this often shows up as a yellow or brown stain on the ceiling below and a sharp smell in one room, especially in warm and humid weather.
When you call, we ask how long the possum has been in the roof, where the stains or smells are and how easy the roof space is to get into. We then give upfront pricing and book a local team. The crew we book does the cleanup after the roof space is clear and the entry points have been sealed, so the space does not get dirty again straight away.
The crew wears gloves and masks, bags up the droppings and nesting material they can reach and removes any small sections of badly soiled insulation where needed. They then wipe down the area around the nesting spot. If the smell is strong, you can ask about roof space deodorising at the same visit. The crew will let you see the area before and after so you can check the work. If you plan to store boxes in the roof space later, this is a good time to have it cleaned out.
