Possum Proofing

Stop possums getting back into your roof.

Possums are protected native animals in NSW, so they are handled humanely and released close to where they were caught. We remove them safely ourselves, so you don't need a separate wildlife handler. We inspect your roof, find every entry point and seal it so it can't move back in.

FAQs

Common questions

Can you remove a possum from my roof?+

Yes. Possums are protected native animals in NSW, so they are handled humanely and released close to where they were caught. We remove them safely ourselves, so you don't need a separate wildlife handler. We then inspect the roof, find the entry points and proof them so the possum can't return.

Are your treatments safe for kids and pets?+

Yes. We use low-toxicity products approved for use around children and pets. Once the treatment has dried (usually 1–2 hours), the area is safe to return to as normal.

How long does a treatment take?+

Most general pest treatments take between 45 and 90 minutes depending on the size of your property and the pest we're targeting.

Do you offer a warranty?+

Every general pest treatment includes a 30-day free call-back. If the pest comes back within that window, so do we — at no extra cost.

How soon will I see results?+

You'll usually see dead pests within 24–48 hours. Cockroach and ant colonies can take 7–14 days to fully collapse as the bait spreads through the nest.

What areas of Sydney do you service?+

We cover Sydney metro end to end — Inner West, Eastern Suburbs, North Shore, Northern Beaches, South West, Western Sydney, Sutherland Shire, Hills District and out to the Blue Mountains, Wollongong and the South Coast.
