A possum that has lived in the roof for a while leaves a lot behind. Droppings pile up around the den and along its regular paths. Urine soaks into insulation batts and timber, and it can come through as brown stains on the ceiling below. The smell tends to hang around long after the possum has gone. In older homes in Wavell Heights, the mess may have built up over a long time before anyone noticed.
After the possum is out and the roof is sealed, the crew we book can clean out the ceiling space. They collect droppings by hand and with a heavy-duty vacuum, bag everything up and take it away. Insulation that is badly soiled or squashed can be lifted out and removed as well. The crew will show you which areas need new insulation, so you can arrange a replacement.
A cleanup is a smart step before replacing a stained ceiling panel, adding new insulation or fitting downlights. It gives other trades a clean space to work in and cuts down on smells that can linger after a possum has gone, especially on hot, humid days. If you plan to sell the house, a clean ceiling space also looks far better when a building inspector goes up through the manhole.
