My apartment had a severe case of carpet moths and Tom’s Pest Control got rid of them in just one visit. I am so satisfied with their service and it is also very cost effective! They will be visiting again in 2 weeks to make sure all the moths and their eggs are gone, which is amazing! We were advised on how to ensure the pests don’t return. Will definitely be coming here to get my end of lease pest management done!

Trusted Possum Pest Control and Prevention

Possums are cute, but they can be a real hassle when they decide to move into the roof of your home or target your commercial business for food.

It is advised to never attempt to make contact with these creatures yourself. Despite their cute appearance, they have sharp claws and can become aggressive when cornered.

It is also vital to never try and harm possums, as they are protected by law and you can land yourself if a lot of hot water.

Tom’s Pest Control has a team of possum catchers that work to remove these pests from your property.

That includes emergency possum removal if they become a nuisance late at night, and dead possum removal when they have given up the ghost in the roof or other spot on your premises.

Our Possum Removal Procedure

Removing possums from your property can be challenging, but we ensure it’s done with care. In collaboration with the wildlife department, we execute possum removal services to create a pest-free environment. Here are the four steps we implement to keep your property possum-free.

Possum Removal-Procedure
Inspection by Our Possum Catchers

Our certified possum catchers know where they like to hide and will develop a plan to flush them out safely and humanely into traps so you can be assured of humane possum control. They will be safely relocated to nearby bushland where they can continue to thrive.

Once we have all the information regarding the infestation, we will carry out the planning. Our plans are not standard; instead, they are customised based on the needs of your property. In the plan, we mention the methods we will use for the removal, how much time this will take, and what results are expected. We will share all these details with you as well.

Our DELWP-licensed possum removal technicians will begin working according to the plan. While we aim to remove these pests from your property, we ensure that they are not put under stress. In most cases, we install cage traps to catch these pests and release them according to Wildlife Australia’s guidelines.

Once we have removed these pests from your property, we will share some valuable tips for you to follow. Following our advice will prevent these pests from returning and help you keep your space clean.

Common Possum Species

Brushtail Possum

Brushtail Possum

The brushtail possum can be quite a hassle when it shows up in Australian homes. These creatures are known for causing trouble by rummaging through gardens and getting into rooftops. They have a varied diet, munching on everything from grass and fungi to bird eggs and even baby birds. This can create quite a mess and upset the balance in your backyard.

Ringtail Possum

Ringtail Possum

Ringtail possums can be quite a nuisance when they decide to set up camp near your home. These creatures usually build their nests, called dreys, high up in the trees using twigs and leaves. While they don’t often make their way into house roofs like some other pests, they can still cause trouble. They might be found in your garden or climbing on trees close to your house, and their noisy activities and droppings can become a real bother.

Frequently Asked Questions

The lifespan of moths depends on their species. Some can live for a few days only, while others can survive for months. In many cases, the eggs and larvae of moths can last longer, which is why it’s important to deal with them quickly.

Start by identifying where they’re coming from and what they’re eating. Clean your home, especially carpets and wardrobes. Next, speak to our moth control experts at TPC and arrange a time for them to visit your property.

Look out for signs like holes or damage in your carpets or clothes, small web-like cocoons, and actual moths flying around. You might also notice larvae or shed skins in your carpets or furniture.

For garden moth control, we focus on reducing their habitat and using targeted treatments. These might include natural predators, removing any infested plants, and applying specific insecticides if necessary.

Professional services are required because pest exterminators can identify and treat the infestation using the right tools and methods. They ensure that all areas are covered and help prevent future problems, which can be tricky to manage on your own.
