Possum Removal Merrimac

Humane removal, roof repairs and thorough proofing - most Merrimac jobs done the same day

Possums in the roof are one of the most common calls we take in Merrimac. Our technicians work across the bayside every week, so we know what the local housing stock looks like and where the animals get in — most often coastal homes where salt-affected roof sheeting and lifted ridge capping open up entry points. We find the entry points, get the possum out humanely, and seal the building so it cannot happen again.

Possums in Your Merrimac Roof?

It usually starts the same way: heavy thumping overhead around dusk, then scratching that keeps the whole house awake. By the time most Merrimac callers reach us there is also a stain spreading across a ceiling and a smell that will not shift. None of that is unusual, and none of it is something you have to live with. We've helped thousands of families reclaim their peace of mind through humane animal control solutions.

That Smell Will Not Clear on Its Own

That unpleasant odour in your home could indicate serious health and structural risks that require immediate professional attention.

What You Are Breathing

Decomposing animals release harmful bacteria and pathogens that can cause serious respiratory problems and infections.

Staining and Structural Damage

Bodily fluids can deeply stain and damage building materials, insulation, and electrical systems.

What the Smell Brings In

Dead animals attract flies, maggots, and other pests that can create secondary infestations throughout your property.
