01
Possum Catcher
Our possum catcher service in Malvern uses cage traps and catch poles to safely capture and relocate possums. We inspect your roof, ceiling and wall cavities to find the entry point. Common in period homes around Malvern East and near Malvern Central. We then seal the entry to prevent re-entry.
02Possum in Roof Removal
Possums in roofs are our most common call in Malvern. We use roof ladders, torches and inspection cameras to locate the possum, then remove it humanely. We repair any damage to roof flashing or tiles. Especially common in older homes near Glenferrie Road and High Street.
03Possum Trapping and Relocation
We set possum traps in strategic locations, check them daily and relocate the possum to a suitable release site. This service is ideal for Malvern residents who want a humane solution. We follow all DEPI permit conditions. We also advise on possum-proofing to prevent future issues.
04Possum Proofing
Possum proofing in Malvern involves sealing entry points with possum proofing mesh, steel mesh and timber battens. We also install roof flashing and use silicone sealant. This is essential for period homes with multiple gaps. We guarantee our proofing work for 12 months.
05One-Way Possum Door Installation
A one-way possum door lets possums exit but not re-enter. We install these on roof entries, wall cavities and chimneys. Perfect for Malvern homes where trapping isn't practical. We use quality doors from brands like Wiretainers. We then seal the entry once the possum is out.
06Dead Possum Removal
A dead possum in your roof or wall cavity can cause a terrible smell. We locate and remove it, then disinfect the area. This service is often needed in Malvern's older homes with inaccessible roof spaces. We use inspection cameras to find the carcass without unnecessary damage.

How We Execute Possum Removal in Malvern
When you book possum removal in Malvern, we start with a thorough inspection. We check your roof, ceiling, wall cavities, shed and chimney using torches and inspection cameras. We identify the possum species and entry po
Older roofs with broken tiles and gaps
Possums easily enter through these gaps, especially in period homes around Malvern East and near De La Salle College. This leads to noise, mess and potential electrical damage. How we help: We inspect every roof carefully, replace broken tiles and seal gaps with possum proofing mesh and roof flashing. We also install one-way doors where needed.
Dense tree canopy providing possum highways
Malvern's leafy streets, especially around Central Park and Glenferrie Road, allow possums to travel from trees to roofs. This increases the likelihood of repeat infestations. How we help: We trim back overhanging branches where possible and install physical barriers. We also advise on tree maintenance to reduce access.
Heritage homes with limited roof access
Many Malvern homes have steep roofs or fragile ceilings, making access difficult. This can delay removal and increase the risk of damage. How we help: We use specialised roof ladders and inspection cameras to work safely. Our technicians are trained in heritage roof access and take extra care.
