Possum Removal
Docklands

When Alpha Pest Control attends a Docklands property, the process follows a structured approach that has been refined across hundreds of inner city Melbourne jobs. The inspection comes first, covering the roof space, exterior cladding, and any service areas where possum activity. Once the entry points are identified and the possum’s roosting location is confirmed, traps are positioned appropriately and checked. After the possum is safely captured, it is relocated in accordance with wildlife handling requirements. Possums must be released close to where they were captured, which makes the proofing stage critical. Without properly sealing the access points after removal, a different possum will simply move in and the cycle starts again. The team seals all identified entries using materials matched to the building type, and a written summary of the work is provided at the end of every job.

Docklands has one of the highest concentrations of strata title and body corporate managed properties in the entire City of Melbourne. Possum issues in these buildings are rarely a single resident problem. When a possum gets into a shared roof space or a mechanical services area, it affects the whole building, and the resolution needs to be coordinated across multiple stakeholders. Alpha Pest Control works directly with building managers, facilities teams, and body corporate representatives across Docklands to ensure that access is arranged correctly, the work is completed efficiently, and documentation is provided in a format suitable for building management records. If possum activity is recurring across the same building, the team can also provide a broader assessment of the building envelope to identify any structural vulnerabilities contributing to repeated entry.

At Alpha Pest Control, we are here to tell you more about these small and furry animals so you can deal with them in a better way.

Possums are marsupials that are renowned for their versatility. Because of their long, agile tails and sharp claws, which enable them to access your roof or trees, they are adept climbers. Possums are omnivores who eat a wide variety of foods, such as fruits, vegetables, insects, and even small rodents. Thus, it should come as no surprise if you discover them digging through your garden or trash.

They are nocturnal, meaning that they are active during the night.
