The roof space is where most possums in Annerley set up home. It is warm, dry and dark, and it sits right next to the trees they feed in at night. Possums are strong climbers and only need a gap not much bigger than a tennis ball to get in. We take calls from people who hear heavy footsteps overhead after dusk and book an independent local crew to get the possum out of the roof and keep it out.
Tiled roofs and metal roofs need different work. On a tiled roof, possums often lift a loose tile or come in under the ridge capping, so the crew resets tiles and closes gaps along the ridge and valleys. On a metal roof, the usual entry is under the edge of the sheets near the gutter or at the end of the ridge, so the crew fits mesh or shaped metal to close those spaces.
A one-way door goes over the main entry first. The possum leaves to feed and cannot get back through the door. Once the crew has checked the roof space is empty, the door is removed and the final gap is sealed. They then show you each spot they have closed.
