A possum that has lived in a roof for weeks or months leaves a mess behind. Droppings build up around the den and along its paths, urine soaks into the insulation and the back of the ceiling, and leaves and nesting material collect in the corners. A possum ceiling clean-up in Brighton clears that out so the roof space is clean again.
The crew we book wears masks and gloves and works through the roof space from the den outwards. They pick up droppings and use a vacuum with a fine filter for the smaller bits, bag any insulation that is too soiled to keep, and remove nesting material. The area is then sprayed with a sanitiser to reduce smell and germs. All the waste is bagged and taken away with the crew.
- Droppings collected from the den and travel paths
- Soiled insulation bagged and removed
- Leaves and nesting material cleared
- Area vacuumed with a fine filter vacuum
- Sanitiser applied to timbers and the back of the ceiling
It makes sense to book the clean-up once the possum has left the roof and the one-way possum door has done its job, so the area is not soiled again straight away. If a stain has come through to the room below, the crew can show you where it is so you can plan to paint over it. Where insulation has been removed, they show you the gap in the batts.
Many people book the clean-up together with smell removal, since the two go hand in hand. To book a possum ceiling clean-up in Brighton or nearby, call 07 3543 7768 and we will give you upfront pricing.
