Removing droppings takes away the visible mess, but urine and residue stay on beams, ceiling plaster and anything stored in the roof. Roof space sanitising in Springwood is the next step. It treats the surfaces where animals have lived so the roof is cleaner and the smell has less to feed on.
The crew we book usually sanitises after the droppings and any badly soiled insulation have been removed. They apply a sanitising product across the affected area with a fine mist sprayer, working over the beams, the upper side of the ceiling plaster and the nest site. They keep the product away from downlights and electrical fittings. The product is then left to dry, which does not take long in a warm Queensland roof.
- Treatment of the nest site and the main runs
- Coverage of beams and the upper side of the ceiling
- Attention to spots above bedrooms and living areas
- A check of stored boxes or items in the roof
- Pairing with odour work if a smell remains
Sanitising is often booked by families with young children and by people who store things in the roof. It is also common when a home is being sold or rented out after a possum problem, as the next people living there will not want any trace of it. Some people also book it after a dead animal has been removed from the roof.
Most homes in Springwood can have sanitising done on the same visit as removal and clean-up. To book, call 07 3543 7768 and we will give you an upfront price for the size of your roof.
