Safe and Humane Possum Removal & Prevention Across All Melbourne Suburbs

Possums are nocturnal creatures that can cause significant damage to your property if left unchecked. They often enter attics, roofs, sheds, and other high areas, creating noise, debris, and potential health risks. Whether you’re dealing with a possum in your attic or on your property, Aptive Pest Control offers professional, humane possum removal and prevention services across all suburbs in Melbourne. Our team is dedicated to safely relocating possums and ensuring your space is secure from further infestations.

🔍 Our Possum Control Process

  1. Initial Inspection and Assessment
    We start by thoroughly inspecting your property, identifying signs of possum activity such as droppings, scratches, and damage to insulation. We determine the entry points and the extent of the infestation.

  2. Safe Possum Relocation
    If possums are present, we humanely trap and relocate them according to the guidelines provided by the Victorian Department of Environment, Land, Water, and Planning (DELWP). We ensure the possums are relocated safely to an appropriate environment.

  3. Exclusion and Prevention
    After removing the possums, we block off any potential entry points to prevent future infestations. This may include sealing roof vents, gaps in the roof, and other areas where possums can access your space.

  4. Damage Repair and Clean-Up
    We also provide repair services to fix any damage caused by possums, including cleaning areas contaminated by urine, feces, or nesting materials. We help restore your property to its original condition.

  5. Ongoing Monitoring and Maintenance
    To ensure long-term protection, we recommend regular inspections and maintenance services, such as checking the roof and property for new potential entry points.

  • Health Risks: Possums can carry diseases such as leptospirosis, and their droppings can spread harmful bacteria.

  • Fire Hazard: Chewing on wires and insulation can cause electrical faults, increasing the risk of a fire.

  • Noise and Disturbance: Possums are nocturnal and may cause loud noises at night, affecting your sleep.
