Some smells hang around even after the possum or dead animal is gone. In Buderim, we hear from people who had a possum removed weeks ago but still notice a sour smell in one room, or who had a dead animal taken out and can still smell it near a downlight. Odour neutralising deals with what is left behind.
The crew we book first finds where the smell is coming from. Often it is a patch of stained timber, a section of insulation that soaked up urine, or the spot in a wall cavity where an animal lay. Air fresheners only mask this kind of smell for a short time, and covering it with fragrance tends to make the house smell worse when the two mix. The crew instead applies an odour product that breaks down the compounds causing it, right at the source.
If the smell has spread into rooms below, the crew can treat vents, downlights, cornices and ceiling surfaces too. For hard to reach cavities, a fogging treatment carries the product into gaps that a spray cannot reach. They explain how long to keep rooms closed and when to open windows. In humid weather, good airflow afterwards helps the house clear more quickly.
