🐾❄️ Hidden in Plain Sight!
As the colder weather sets in, possums are on the lookout for warm, sheltered places to escape the elements — and your roof space can be the perfect winter home!
This small gap in the cornicing gave this crafty possum’s hiding spot away. Gaps in roof tiles, along the eaves, in the guttering and between weather boards are often overlooked but can be enough to provide easy access for wildlife seeking warmth and protection.
If you’re hearing scratching, scurrying, or thumping noises in your ceiling or walls at dusk and again at dawn, then there’s a good chance a possum has moved in.
At Defender Pest Control Specialists, we’re experts in humane possum exclusion services, helping homeowners:
✅ Locate possum entry points
✅ Safely exclude possums from roof spaces
✅ Install preventative measures to reduce future access
✅ Protect homes from noise, mess, and damage
Winter is peak possum season, so don’t ignore those noises overhead.
