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 Mount Eliza 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 equipment are required, we explain the work before it begins.

Possum Removal for Mount Eliza Homes

Mount Eliza’s larger blocks, mature trees, established gardens and sloping sites provide natural possum habitat and easy access to residential roofs. Possums may enter through gaps around tiles, eaves, flashing, vents, chimneys, extensions and roof junctions, particularly on older or renovated homes.

Our Mount Eliza possum removal service identifies the entry point, provides a humane way for the possum to leave and secures the access points being used. This helps resolve the immediate problem and reduces the chance of the same possum or another animal returning.

We provide possum removal in Mount Eliza and surrounding areas, including:

  • Frankston South
  • Baxter
  • Mornington
  • Moorooduc

Signs You May Have a Possum in Your Roof

Possums are usually most active after dark, so the first sign of a problem is often noise coming from the ceiling or roof space at night.

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
Rats generally produce lighter scampering and gnawing sounds, while possums are more likely to produce heavy movement, hissing or thumping. An inspection can confirm what is actually inside before removal work begins.

Possum Removal Mount Eliza FAQs

Common Brushtail Possums can be humanely removed from buildings in Victoria under specific conditions. If trapping is used, the possum must be released after sunset on the same property and within 50 metres of where it was captured.

Our preferred approach combines humane removal with roof proofing, allowing the possum to leave before its identified entry 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

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

Not necessarily. Possums, rats, birds and other animals can create noise inside or around a roof. Heavy footsteps and thumping at night can indicate a possum, while lighter scratching, scampering and gnawing may be associated with rodents.

An inspection allows us to look for physical signs of activity and determine the appropriate next step rather than relying on sound alone.

I simply could not be happier with the services provided by this business and their rep,Sam. My possums were tricky critters with multiple entry/exit points and as promised.

Property One Sales & Management

Gad diction

100% use 1800 possums if you are having any sort of possum problem/infestation. We had 5 months of sleepless nights from LOUD noises with the possums being inside our roof cavity. One visit was all it took for the possums to leave our roof.

Rubert Gordon

Just to let you know that you have done a fantastic job getting rid of our possums for us.

Jess Ellis

Sam from 1800 POSSUMS -Frankston, had provided such a fantastic service from excellent communication, and attention to detail and extensive follow up of work. I highly recommend this company for excellent and ongoing service. Great peace of mind for moving into a new home. Thanks again to the team.

Madeleine ODonnell

What an absolute legend! We called Luke at about 4:15 on a Saturday afternoon to help us rescue a possum from a house in Rye area, not knowing he was based in Melbourne. So lucky for us he was in Mt Martha and came straight away. Would highly recommend him if you are ever in a similar situation!!
