Before you pay for removal, it can help to find out exactly what is in the roof. A roof cavity inspection gives you that answer. We book inspections across Kallangur when people are unsure whether they are hearing a possum, rats or something else, or when noises have come back after earlier work.
The crew we book climbs into the roof cavity with a torch and checks it section by section. They look for droppings, urine stains on the ceiling boards, flattened or dirty insulation, rub marks on beams and any nest. Possum droppings are larger and more pellet-shaped than rat droppings, so the signs usually tell the story. Outside, the crew checks the roof line, vents, eaves and nearby trees for the likely way in.
You get a plain explanation of what was found, with photos if you want them, and a price for any work that is needed. If it is a possum, the crew can often start removal and sealing on the same visit once you agree. If it turns out to be rats or mice, they will explain the options for rodent control. If the roof is clear, they will tell you that too, along with any gaps worth closing before something moves in.
