Possums gotta love 'em

[MattT]

In Melbourne possums are loved or loathed...well hated is the usual.So I'm able to report a good news story on the much maligned creature.
My back yard is surrounded by trees to the south and east.Posss began eating a liquid amber tree a fee months ago not a leaf was spared, over the summer the darlings have managed to kill the 20 year old tree. :eyepop:Now I'm not sad at all as this tree blockedy view of the celestial pole. Now I can see south and all the beauties that brings all I need is to get the possums to eat my neighbours gum tree to the east...not likely ... Then the railway stations lights! Matt

Hey Matt, if you can work out a way to put some fruit in your neighbours tree, guess who will take up residence in it and eat anything edible, leaves included ;)

Spread vegemite over the branches - no-one will even see it!

Matt, if you want more possums, I have 3 (I think) living in the walls of my house that you can have for free if you want them.

Thanks for the offer of free possums:lol: Think I'll pass as my walls already have a bees hive and somewhere a bunch of termites doing their thing too... though the termite people can't get them to eat the nice poison, or find what they have been eating. I strongly suspect my lounge rooms sub floor. Matt

The possums scare the crap out of me when I am outside with my scope.
