Why Possums Become a Problem in North East Adelaide Homes
If you live in Tea Tree Gully, Modbury, Golden Grove, Surrey Downs, Banksia Park, Wynn Vale or nearby suburbs, you’re likely familiar with brushtail possums finding their way into roof spaces — especially in leafy areas and older homes with plenty of trees nearby.
​
Common signs of possums in your home include:
-
Scratching, thumping and scurrying noises in the ceiling at dusk and dawn
-
Possum droppings on pathways, driveways or in the roof cavity
-
Damaged insulation, chewed wiring or garden plants
-
Strong odours or unexplained stains on ceilings
Left untreated, possums can cause costly damage and disturb your family’s sleep for months. We help local Adelaide families resolve the issue humanely while preventing future problems.
Our Humane Possum Removal & Proofing Process
At House Care Pest Control, we never trap or harm native possums. We use a wildlife-compliant one-way exit system that allows the possum to leave naturally on its own schedule. Once it has exited, we fully proof your home to keep it and others out for good.
​
Our simple, local 5-step process:
-
Free On-Site Inspection — Usually same or next day in Tea Tree Gully and North East suburbs
-
Humane Removal — One-way doors installed so the possum exits safely
-
Complete Proofing — All entry points sealed with durable, long-lasting materials
-
Branch Trimming — Creating a minimum 1-metre gap between overhanging trees and your roof where needed
-
Long-Term Protection — Up to 2-year warranty on proofing work (particularly on Colorbond roofs)

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you service Tea Tree Gully and nearby suburbs?
Yes, we are based locally and regularly help homes right across the North East.
Are possums protected in South Australia?
Yes, which is why we only use approved humane one-way exit methods.
How quickly can you come?
Often the same day or next day in Tea Tree Gully and surrounding North East suburbs.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes, up to 2 years on our proofing work, particularly on Colorbond roofs.
Why no warranty on the tile roofs?
Possums are surprisingly strong and can lift roof tiles. While we successfully proof many tile roofs, the warranty does not cover new entry points caused by the overall condition or age of the roof. If pests return due to our work, we return at no extra charge.
