Description

Pestrol Brushtail Possum Nesting Box

For many Australians, sharing your property with possums is a fact of life.  The trees and garden are their natural habitat and as a result, they can become a nuisance on your property.  By using a Possum Nesting Box – you will be providing a new home for your unwanted guest and keeping it away from the roof and your garage.

By providing possums with a safe alternative home location, we have found that in most cases you would be able to relocate noisy possums from your home.

Possums are protected under the Wildlife Act 1975 and must not be harmed in any way or kept without approval from DELWP.

It is illegal to harass or interfere with possums.

A possum in your roof or eating your flowers can be very frustrating, but people and possums can live together successfully by providing a new home for possums.

If you still have multiple possums in your location you may wish to consider our very popular Electronic Possum Deterrent.

The possum boxes are made out of a BC Hardwood, Exterior grade with an A-bond (Marine) glue-line.

How to install your Possum Box

What you will need:
  • A ladder that will reach at least 4 meters long
  • Drill
  • Drill bit
  • Hex – dead driver and/or 3/8 socket and driver

Pestrol Brushtail Possum Nesting Box comes flat packed and will take approximately 10 minutes to assemble.  You can either install it yourself or have it done professionally.

Make sure to find an appropriate location to place Brushtail Possum Nesting Box.  When looking for a location, try to ensure that the possum box is not facing North through West. Possums do not like sunlight, the box should be placed in the area where it is not exposed to full sunlight and afternoon heat.  The best location should be protected from the heat, wet winds and not in an open location.

A lot of different possum species prefer heights of 4 meters to have the protection from pets and give them privacy, though 6 to 8 meters would be preferred.

Spray inside the possum house with an insect repellent, as this will act as a deterrent against bees.

Internal Dimensions:

400mm x 250mm x 250mm.

Entry hole for possum nesting box: 100mm

Q & A

Our possums used to sleeping the roof of our chook house, but as we have replaced the roof, the possums can no longer get in the roof. Can I put the nesting box next to the roof? Tracey Davis asked on 1 September 2024

Hey Tracey,
With the Brushtail Possum Nesting Box you can wire hang it, or place on a stable surface, you would be able to mount the nesting box next to the roof.

Is the Pestrol Brushtail Possum Nesting Box waterproof for rain? Is the wood already treated so it can be outdoors? Joanne Bradburn asked on 29 July 2024

Hey Joanne,
The Brushtail Possum Nesting Box, and all of the nesting boxes in our range are made with Marine Grade Ply, this wood will not need to be treated and is already suitable to sit outside in the elements.

Does the Brushtail Possum Nesting Box have a hinge and open? What is the light coloured panel on the front for? Is that a door? How do you attach the box to the tree? Joanne Bradburn asked on 29 July 2024

Hey Joanne,
The Brushtail Possum Nesting Box does not have a hinge, however, installing on would be a very simple process. The panel on the front is to help give possums something to grasp on to as they climb into the entry hole. The nesting boxes can be wire hung against the tree using the small holes on the side of the box.

  10. The speed of your service is excellent, however the possums have just relocated to another part of the roof. We have two large possums and I don’t think they fit through the whole in the box. Possibly we were sent a bird box instead? Even a small cat wouldn’t fit through the whole. Anyway the box is high up in a large gum tree empty. Followed all the instructions. Hubby is a CCTV expert and we set up cameras on the roof, the possums are having a great time at night but sadly not interested in the box.

  11. Thank you for quick delivery of the Brushtail Possum Box.
    It was easy and quick to assemble, then secure up in a large tree.

  14. Great box. Easy to put together and seems great quality. Would be great if you could also add something which you could attach so that it can be put in a tree. I ended up making something out of a wire coat hanger with some old hose around it and then attaching it to the box. But better if supplied with the box.

  20. Honestly can not believe this. We built it on Sunday and placed it 3 metres up, one of our trees with some apple in it, in the hope that the naughty possums would move out of our roof. Today Thursday we decided to have lunch in the back garden and we saw a brushy pop her head out of the box to check us out. In 4 days our possum box is now a possum home. AMAZING!
