A dead animal in the roof or walls is hard to miss. The smell builds over a few days, and you may notice flies inside the house or a stain on the ceiling. On the Gold Coast, the heat and humidity make it worse, so it pays to act quickly.
The crew we book tracks down the source using the smell, flies, stains and any signs of where an animal has been living. It could be a possum, a rat, or another small animal that got into the roof, a wall cavity or under the floor. Once found, the body is bagged and taken away, and the area is cleaned and treated.
- Search of the roof space, wall cavities and subfloor
- Body bagged and removed from the property
- Soiled material and insulation around the spot cleared
- Area treated with a deodoriser
- Entry point checked and pointed out to you
If the animal is inside a wall or under a floor where there is no easy access, the crew will explain the options before doing anything. Sometimes a small access hole is the quickest way, and the crew will talk you through where it would go and how it can be patched. Nothing is cut without your okay.
Once the animal is out, the crew looks at how it got in. If there is an open gap, sealing it stops the next animal using the same way in, and that can be added to the same trip. We give you upfront pricing on the phone, and we can often book a crew same-day or next-day where the run allows for homes on the Gold Coast. Call 07 3543 7767 to book.
