A dead animal in the roof or wall makes a smell that is hard to live with. It usually starts faintly and gets stronger over a few days, and it can bring flies into the house. Waiting does not help much, since the smell can hang around for weeks in hot weather. We take bookings for dead animal removal across Annerley and send an independent local crew to find the source and take it away.
Finding the animal is the main part of the job. The crew tracks the smell through the roof space, along the wall plates and under the floor if the home is on stumps. They look for flies, stains on the ceiling and damp patches. In most homes the animal is a possum or a rat that has crawled into a quiet corner.
Once found, the animal is bagged and removed from your property. The crew can then clear soiled insulation or nesting material from the spot and treat the area to cut the smell. If the animal is inside a wall and cannot be reached from the roof, they will explain the options before doing anything else. Sealing the gap it used helps keep the next animal out.
