A possum living in the roof leaves plenty behind. Droppings collect near the nest and along its runways, urine soaks into the insulation and ceiling boards, and nesting material builds up in corners. Left alone, this mess keeps the smell going and can stain the ceiling below. We book possum waste clean-up across Kallangur, usually straight after removal and sealing.
The crew we book goes into the roof cavity in protective gear and clears the waste by hand, using an industrial vacuum where it suits. They bag droppings, nesting material and small patches of soiled insulation, then carry the bags out through the manhole and take them away. They lay sheets under the manhole to keep dust out of the house. Stained timber and boards can be treated with a deodoriser once the waste is gone.
Timing matters. Cleaning up while a possum is still living in the roof only buys a short break before the mess builds again. It makes sense to clean up once the possum is out and the gaps are closed. If the waste covers a large area of insulation, the crew may suggest soiled insulation removal instead, and they will give you a price before starting.

If you have had a possum removed from your Kallangur home in the past but the roof was never cleaned, this job can be booked on its own. Tell us roughly how long the possum was there so we can price it. Call 07 3543 7773 for upfront pricing.
