In this latest blog update, we will be taking a closer look at our Brisbane possum removal and relocation services.
Understanding the Possum Problem
Possums are native to Australia and include species like the Common Brushtail, Common Ringtail, and Mountain Brushtail. While these creatures are cute and protected by law, they can cause significant damage when they invade your home. They chew through electrical wiring and timber, and their droppings and urine can pose health risks.
As urban areas expand, possums have adapted by seeking new habitats and food sources in our backyards and homes. They munch on tree bark, leaves, fruits, vegetables, and even flowers. If a family of possums moves into your ceiling, you’ll likely hear them scurrying around at night, disrupting your sleep and peace of mind.
Our Humane Solution
At Pesky Possum Bird & Pest Control, we specialise in the humane handling and relocation of possums. Our licensed technicians are well-versed in government regulations concerning the removal of native fauna, ensuring that all actions are compliant and considerate of the possums’ well-being.
The process begins with a thorough inspection to identify all entry and exit points. Once these are located, we install proofing measures to seal off these gaps and prevent future invasions. We also place traps inside the sealed areas to catch any possums that might be trapped inside. This careful approach ensures that the possums are safely removed without harm.
Capture and Relocation
Under local laws, possums must be released within 25 metres of their capture point. This is to ensure they remain within their familiar territory. Our technicians are trained to handle these creatures gently and ensure they are relocated without stress.
Long-Term Peace of Mind
After the possums are removed, we don’t just leave you to fend for yourself. We install one-way doors, allowing any remaining possums to exit your home safely but preventing re-entry. This method is highly effective in keeping your roof possum-free.
To provide extra assurance, our proofing work comes with a warranty of up to 12 months. So, if any persistent possums try to make a comeback, you’re covered.
