Wollongong Possum Removal
Hearing strange noises in your ceiling at night? It could be a possum nesting in your roof or wall cavities. While they’re a protected species in Australia, possums can cause significant disruption by damaging insulation, chewing wires and keeping households awake with late-night activity.
At Advanced Pest Control Wollongong, we provide safe, legal and humane possum removal services across our region. We start by inspecting your property to confirm the presence and access points, then install one-way exit doors or traps as required. After removal, we’ll secure entry points to prevent re-entry and offer advice on long-term prevention. If you’re dealing with other intruders such as cockroaches or rodents, we can help with that too.

Our Possum Services
Possum removal is a specialist service governed by strict legal and environmental guidelines.
- Identification and Inspection
We determine whether the noise or disturbance is caused by a possum or another animal, then locate entry points and nesting zones. - Humane Trapping or One-Way Exits
Where appropriate, we install one-way doors or use licensed traps to safely evict the possum from your home without harm. - Sealing Entry Points
Possums are territorial and persistent. Once removed, we block off access holes using heavy-duty materials so they can’t return. - Advice for Prevention
We advise on trimming branches, securing bins and other deterrents to make your home less inviting for future visits.
Are possums dangerous to people?
Possums aren’t aggressive, but they can scratch or bite if cornered. More commonly, they cause damage to property and disturb sleep with loud activity.
Is it illegal to remove possums yourself?
Yes. Possums are protected in Australia and must be handled by licensed professionals using approved methods. DIY removal is not permitted by law.
Why do possums like roof spaces?
Roof voids offer warmth, safety and quiet during the day. Possums are nocturnal and seek dark, enclosed areas to sleep during daylight hours.
