Pest Control And The How, What And Why S Of Possums In Your Adelaide Hills Home
- Living in the Adelaide Hills you get the best possible experience of Australia's natural beauty, however, it does mean that your home can be more susceptible from pests, meaning you may need to call in pest control.
- Pest control is something that you will most likely come across in your time living in your Adelaide Hills home. These pests can vary from all different kinds of pests including rats, mice, termites but they also very often include possums. Possums are a great national animal, which we need to take care of, however, they do find themselves getting comfortable in the roof of our home or even in the walls. Although it would be nice to allow the little things to set up camp in our homes, they can cause a lot of problems, and can even find themselves in dangerous situations and end up dying in your wall or roof and leave you with the stick and hard job of retrieving them.
- HOW CAN I TELL IF THERE ARE POSSUMS IN MY WALLS OR ROOF?
- The easiest way to tell that you have possums inside your house is through the noises that they make. Possums are very territorial and will defend their new home (which is, of course, your home). Therefore, any other possum, which might find its way through the same hole, might find itself in a bit of a tough spot. You will hear these aggressive exchanges between the possums. You will also hear the possums moving around at the beginning of the night as they begin to wake up, or even hear them scurrying around and being bothered by the noises you make in your day to day routine.
- WHY ARE THERE POSSUMS IN MY ROOF?
- Possums find their way in your roof and walls by chewing there way through an already existing bit of damaged roofing and nuzzling their way through to your roof. From there they can find their way inside the walls and around the roof of your house.
- CAN'T I JUST CATCH THE POSSUM AND THEN ‚¬"RELOCATE‚¬ IT?
- Nope. Unfortunately this is not an effective way to rid your home of the possum/s, which have taken up a cosy little spot. As stated before, they are territorial and will therefore find their way back to their ‚¬"home‚¬, also known as, your home. They will also find a way back into their home quite easily if they find the same spot the entered from originally has not been closed off properly. This is why proper pest control is needed to ease the possums out of the house and block of the spot they were coming in from.
