Same Day Pest control Penrith handles Possum Control in Penrith 2750 NSW, Australia by live-trapping adult possums under NSW biodiversity focuse, fitting one-way exclusion doors to let juveniles exit safely, then sealing all roof entry points with galvanised mesh and replacing damaged tiles or ridge caps. Penrith homes require 2–4 visits over 7–14 days to make sure clearance. The process is entirely humane, , and backed by a 12-month coverage against re-entry. Jobs typically cost depending on roof size, access difficulty, and the number of entry points requiring permanent exclusion work.

Call 0485931661 or submit the quote form and you'll speak to a Customer Focused within 90 minutes during business hours. We ask about the noise pattern (scratching, thumping, time of night), visible roof damage, and how long the possum has been present. You'll receive an upfront price range based on your roof type and property size—no site visit fee, no obligation. Penrith assessments are booked within 24–48 hours, and we confirm your appointment with an SMS containing the technician's name and arrival window.
Our technician arrives in a marked vehicle with ladder, inspection camera, and UV torch. We walk your roof perimeter checking eaves, ridge tiles, barge caps, and valley junctions for gaps, cracks, and possum scat. Using the UV torch in your manhole we identify urine trails and confirm active denning. You'll see photos of every entry point on our tablet, and we'll explain which gaps are primary access and which are secondary escape routes. The inspection takes 25–40 minutes, and you'll receive a quote on-site listing every seal required, the trapping or exclusion method, the timeline, and the total price—no hidden extras, no pressure.
If we're cage-trapping, the trap is placed in the roof near the active den site, baited with apple and checked at dawn the next day. Once the possum is captured we release it into a wooden nest box fixed to a tree on your boundary— under the 50-metre rule. If we're using a one-way exclusion door, it's fitted to the main exit point at dusk, allowing the possum to leave overnight but preventing re-entry. We return 48 hours later to confirm the roof is clear using a thermal camera scan and listening check. No animal is left trapped, and no young are separated from adults—NSW regulations are followed exactly.
Every identified entry point is sealed the day after possum removal is confirmed. Eave gaps are packed with stainless steel wool and covered with 6mm galvanised weldmesh secured with tek screws. Lifted or cracked tiles are re-bedded with roof cement or replaced with colour-matched terracotta or concrete tiles sourced professionally. Barge caps are re-nailed, fascia cracks are patched with marine timber filler, and all junctions are sealed with neutral-cure siliconewell regardedfor 5+ years UV exposure. You'll receive before-and-after photos of every seal, and we test each one by hand to confirm a possum cannot reopen it. The sealing work typically takes 2–4 hours depending on how many entry points your roof has.
Before we leave we walk you through every seal, show you the nest box location, and hand you a completion report listing materials used, entry points closed. The coverage covers any possum re-entering through a point we've sealed. You'll also receive a possum-proofing checklist: trim branches within 2 metres of the roofline, clear dense ivy from walls, and check eaves annually after severe storms. We're available by phone for the life of your coverage if you hear suspicious roof noise—customers never need us back.

Every job is quoted on-site after a quick inspection, so the price is fixed with no surprises.
You receive a quote on-site listing every entry point, every seal, the trapping fee, and the total price before any work begins. That number doesn't change unless you ask us to seal additional gaps we didn't originally quote. No trap hire fees, no roof access fees, no invoice surprises—the price we quote is the price you pay, and it includes the 12-month coverage.
Our solutions hold current NSW National Parks & biodiversity focuses to trap and handle protected possums. We follow the 50-metre relocation rule, never harm animals, and provide so you're not exposed to fines. Every possum is released into a nest box on your property, and we fit the box in a location that keeps the animal away from your roof—usually a boundary tree facing away from the house.
Trapping a possum without sealing the roof is a waste of money—another possum moves in within 3–7 days. We're skilled in roof carpentry and tile work, not just pest control. Every eave gap, tile lift, and fascia crack is permanently closed using materials a possum cannot chew, pull, or dig through. We've sealed over 340 Penrith roofs in the last two years, and our re-entry rate is under 2%—because we fix the structure, not just remove the animal.
If your possum has dependent young in the roof, NSW law prohibits us from separating them. We explain the 4–6 week wait required by regulation, fit a one-way door so the adult can forage, and return once the juvenile is mobile to complete exclusion. We don't break the law to finish faster, and we don't charge you extra for visits—the timeline and price are set honestly from the start.
