Default Cool Story

Cool Story. Everyone needs a good laugh at leat every other day. Get a live trap and trap him or do like I did and get a regular snap trap bait it and it will catch him on a leg. Be sure that you have the trap anchored good enough so he doesn't take it with him. Ha Ha
Oh Yeah where you see one possum there are usually babies and other adults. They used to get under my farm house in the winter, claw and attach themselves to the hot water pipes under the house. Trust me you don't want to get one cornered.

awwww man poor little fella.My great grandparents kept a possum as a pet.I was allways getting in trouble for messin with him as a kid.

Not every other day but every day ! I couldent use a snap trap as it would hurt the little fella and I might catch the cat,and the live catch just isent as much fun ! A friend of mine had a possum get into his ductwork once.I stopped by to see him one day and he had a fishing pole useing a hotdog for bait that he dropped down into the ductwork and was sitting there possum fishin in his living room.
