Thumping across the ceiling at night is the sound most people in Nundah describe when they call about possum removal. A possum has found a gap in the roofline and made a den in the warm, dry space above the ceiling. It sleeps there during the day, heads out after dark and comes back before sunrise, which is why the noise tends to come at dusk and again in the early hours.
The crew we book starts by finding the way in. They check the roofline from the ground and from inside the ceiling, looking for rub marks, droppings and gaps around tiles, sheets of iron, eaves and vents. Once the main entry point is found, they fit a one-way door over it. The door lets the possum out of the cavity when it heads off at night, but stops it from getting back in through the same gap.
When the cavity is clear, the one-way door comes off and the gap is sealed with sturdy materials suited to your roof. The crew also looks over the rest of the roofline for other weak spots, since a roof with one gap often has two or three more. Those can be sealed on the same visit or priced as proofing work.
