A one-way door is the core of possum removal from a roof or wall. It is a short tunnel or hinged flap screwed firmly over the gap the possum uses. The possum pushes out through it when it goes to feed at night, and when it comes back, the door will not open from the outside. We book a nearby independent crew to fit these for homes across Indooroopilly, with upfront pricing given on the phone.
Getting the door in the right place matters. If there is a second gap the crew has not found, the possum simply uses that one instead. That is why the crew we book checks the whole roof line before they fit the door. They block smaller gaps first, then fit the door over the main entry so it is the only way out.
The door stays in place for a few nights. During that time the roof should go quiet. If you still hear movement, let us hear about it and the crew will come back and look for another way in. Once things are quiet, the door comes off and the gap is sealed. The door is sized to the gap so the possum can find it easily in the dark.
- Door fitted over the main entry only
- Smaller gaps blocked before fitting
- Door left in place for a few quiet nights
- Gap sealed after the door comes off
- Check-in if noise continues
For most Indooroopilly homes, fitting the door and sealing up takes two short visits. It is a simple method that works well when every other gap is closed off. Call 07 3543 7772 to book a crew to fit a one-way door at your place.
