I tried to catch this guy 3 nights in a row with no success. So last night I put a trail of bread OUTSIDE the cage and then a trail of bread going INSIDE the cage. Well, just like Hansel and Gretel, he followed the bread crumbs all the way into the cage far enough to trip the door closed. This morning, I took him over to the woods about 3 miles away from my house and let him go. I hope he doesn't find his way back any time soon. Here is a photo of him and I don't think he looks very happy, do you?

Does anyone have any ideas how we can keep possums from coming in our yard?
I think I have possums in my attic. They are also in my walls. These things are scary because they fight all the time.
What are possums afraid of? And how do I get rid of them?
This is the second time in a 3 week period my little Jack Russell terrier woke us up in the middle of the night chasing a possum.
