Once the roof is clear and the gaps are sealed, there is still the mess to deal with. A possum living in a ceiling space for weeks or months leaves behind droppings, urine-soaked insulation and piles of leaves and bark used for nesting. That build-up is usually behind the stale smell people in Mitchelton notice in a bedroom, and the brown stains that creep across ceiling boards. The smell tends to hang around even after the noise stops.
The crew we book goes into the ceiling space and bags up the droppings and nesting material, using an industrial vacuum where it helps. Insulation that is soiled or matted down is lifted out and bagged, and you are told how much has come out so you can decide whether to replace it. The worst areas are then sprayed with a deodoriser to cut down the smell. Everything that is removed is bagged and taken away.
Cleanup is booked after removal and sealing, so the ceiling space is only cleaned once the roof is closed off. While up there, the crew also looks at the ceiling boards and joists and tells you about any stains or damage they see, so you can decide what to do next. Many people book the cleanup on the same call as removal, so the whole job is planned from the start.
