Get the Possum Out and Keep It Out

Getting a possum out of your roof is only part of the solution. If the entry point remains open, the same possum or another animal may return.

Our Holland Park possum removal service combines humane removal with professional roof proofing. We inspect accessible roof, exterior and subfloor areas to identify possum activity and likely entry points.

Where suitable, we use a one-way exit method before securing identified openings with durable materials. If additional repairs or specialised access equipment are required, we explain the work before it begins.

$495

  • Inspection of accessible areas
  • Humane possum removal
  • Identification of entry points
  • Sealing and securing identified openings

Possum Removal for Holland Park Homes

Holland Park is an established, leafy suburb with post-war timber homes, renovated properties and newer infill development. Its sloping streets, elevated houses and mature gardens create varied rooflines and access routes for possums. Gaps around eaves, roof sheets, vents, flashing, gables and extensions can provide entry into sheltered ceiling spaces.

Our Holland Park possum removal service identifies how the possum is getting inside, provides a humane way for it to leave and secures the openings being used. This resolves the immediate problem while helping reduce the chance of another possum returning to the same roof space.

We provide possum removal in Holland Park and surrounding suburbs, including:

  • Holland Park West
  • Greenslopes
  • Coorparoo
  • Camp Hill
  • Mount Gravatt
  • Mount Gravatt East
  • More

Signs You May Have a Possum in Your Roof

Possums are nocturnal, so unusual activity after dark is often the first sign homeowners notice.

Common signs of possum activity include:
  • Heavy thumping or movement across the ceiling
  • Scratching inside the roof or around roof edges
  • Noises that become more noticeable after sunset
  • Droppings inside the roof or near access points
  • Musty or unpleasant odours
  • Disturbed or damaged insulation
  • Nesting material inside the roof
  • Visible openings around eaves, tiles or roof junctions
It is important to confirm whether the animal is a possum, as rats usually make lighter scratching and scampering noises, while possums produce heavier footsteps and thumps. An inspection helps identify the animal before removal.

Possum Removal Holland Park FAQs

Yes, but possums are protected native wildlife in Queensland and removal must comply with wildlife regulations.

Commercial possum removal involving trapping must be undertaken by an appropriately licensed possum relocator. Where a possum is trapped, Queensland requirements restrict how far it can be moved from the capture location.

Our preferred approach uses humane one-way exit methods where appropriate, allowing the possum to leave the building before its identified access points are secured.

The $495 fixed price includes GST and applies to most standard homes.

The service includes:

  • Inspection of accessible areas
  • Humane possum removal
  • Identification of likely entry points
  • Sealing and securing identified openings
  • A return visit where required
  • Two-year money-back guarantee

Properties requiring extensive building repairs, specialised access equipment or work outside the standard scope may require an additional quotation. Any additional work will be discussed before it begins.

Not necessarily, but older timber houses can have several areas that need careful inspection.

Eaves, gables, roof sheets, vents and joins created during renovations can deteriorate or develop small gaps over time. Elevated homes may also have additional areas around verandahs, additions or under-house structures that need to be assessed.

We inspect the individual property rather than assuming that its age or construction automatically makes it vulnerable.

What Holland Park Homeowners Say

Katie

Benn was very helpful and successfully removed the possum from our ceiling. I highly recommend using 1800 possum.

Bethan Jervis

Booked on a Saturday, Monday morning visit. All sorted by lunch time! Our 4 possums have all moved on safely. Follow up was really quick and easy. Really impressed and grateful, would definitely use again and recommend.

Bryan Bui

Benn did a great job with our possum issue. He was friendly, professional with good communication skill. We had a renovation going on so it was a bit complex but he was able to work with us. Highly recommended!

V Perera

Benn did a fantastic job. He came and climbed up on to my 2 storey Queenslander roof and setup up one way doors at the access points so the critters left and couldn’t get back in. Showed me photos of the nesting spots.

Ben Erskine

Overall a great experience with the 1800 Possums team. They were very helpful over the phone when I initially rang seeking advise, I think I spoke to Luke. The next afternoon I made a booking and Benn was out the following day possum …

Colin Parks

I would highly recommend Benn from 1800Possums. He was very professional, knowledgeable and honest while resolving my possum problem efficiently and at a very reasonable cost.
