I have a "possum" story, too. I'm upstairs around 11 pm.....and I hear K scream.... I grabbed my semi automatic sand wedge and ran for the mud room. Hiding behind the door was K clearly shaken AND stirred. She was cornered by a "dead rat" 3 feet in front of her was our dead "possum" seems Levi went out for a wiz and came back bearing gifts. Levi was having a good time......and I was howling and happy that I didn't have to tear up any ceramic tile. I asked K to quietly step over the corps and come to her Papa. A few mins later..a miracle.....Grey Rat Resurrection! We all had a nice chuckle at Chicklette's expense. even the dogs. the end SHootie

Where I live in Davie we have 100's of possums, armadillos and raccoons that love to dig up my yard.. They are looking for grubs.. So I bought an animal trap and put a can of cat food in it and caught over 20 possums, raccoons and armadillos. I take them to a nearby state park releaser them and tell them if they ever come back I get the gun..They look at me like I am stupid or something...LOL... BTw they are all nasty as sh** when they are in the cage... They call armadillos possums on the half shell...<gg>

I was about to say, "I doubt he'll be back after the welcome you gave him." Then I got to thinking about how truly stupid opossums are. They're worse than dairy cattle. He'll be back. Keep your trash cans in the garage.

Jorj, I loved your opossum story... I just wish I could have seen the event. ;-) Pepsi would have a field day behind my place. Plenty of deer, raccoons, and feral cats to make it very exciting.

How about a can of pepper spray, think that would back him off next time? We have a family of the little Fokkers in our yard and a family of woodchucks. I found that by buying a thingamawhatsis to hold my garbage cans the possums don't screw around so much. I had a thingamawhatsis that was built in but the DPW here takes the cans from your backyard.....1950s style....and repeatedly broke the thingamawhatsis....patent pending....so I bought this four wheeled thingamawhatsis. Works very well, and the opossums haven't been causing trouble since. I think I bought it from these mooks, but cannot find it now. sportys.com
