I went outside tonight to savour a cigarette and looked to my right after hearing a strange noise and to my surprise i looked over and saw a possum floppy on the back of the bench next to me looking close to it was going to get a leap at my face!

It be the scariest thing ever I jump about 10 foot in the atmosphere and landed lying on the work bench.

We have neighbors that only just left their house after not paying the mortage for 6 months and they vanished it looking like an forsaken house. i am going to call the city tomorrow and report them.

How do I go and get this possom out? Also I am worried their might be a family? I enjoy a Hav a Hart trap that I got from Animal Control a few weeks ago because due to the house subsequent doors' condition, we had a family circle of 8 squirrles demolish the side of our wooden shed so we had to occupation them and set them free. it was rather an experience.

If I use the trap, what can i use for bait?
