Possums and dead animals leave more than a smell behind. Droppings, urine and decaying material can carry germs and attract flies and other insects. Once the mess has been cleared out, sanitising treats the roof space itself. This matters most above bedrooms, kitchens and rooms with ducted air conditioning, where air from the roof space can find its way inside. We book this work across North Lakes, usually straight after a clean-up or dead animal removal.
The crew we book applies a sanitising product to the timber beams, ceiling boards and any surfaces the animals have been in contact with. The spray or fog reaches around the joists and into the corners where droppings collect. It is aimed at the areas around the nest, the paths the possum used and the spot where any dead animal was found.
Sanitising is not a replacement for removal and clean-up. The droppings, nest and soiled insulation must come out first, otherwise the treatment has little to work on. Once the roof has been cleared, sanitised and sealed, the air in the house usually feels fresher within a few days. The crew will tell you if any rooms should be kept closed for a short time while the product settles.
