Looks like my builder boys have sealed in...the possum! The only remaining exit from Possum Marriott is through the manhole...& hopefully (?) down the ladder & out of the kitchen window. Do youse think our cunning plan will work? (We used apple for bait..?? That's my Gail up the ladder.)
Guess how I'm spending Christmas Eve?... terrified of in-house possum warfare....Geeze Louise!

I think the local council hires out possum traps if you are really desperate.

I enquired about that Bob.....I have to contact Forestry. I need a permit. It will take 3 months to get one. blah blah. They don't need relocating because....they live at Gail's next door (who feeds the little mongrels...deep sigh) They just like sleeping in my ceiling (+ pooing & peeing no doubt...eeewwwe.)

Anyway......our cunning trap ain't worked yet cos the apple is still there...

Watch this space Heather xx ....... :(

The possum is sitting up in your roof (peeing down your walls), chewing a bit of apple and laughing its head off Glenny. I wish I was a fly on the wall sometimes.

Just light up a fag and blow a few smoke rings up the hatch and it will be out of there in no time. :shock:
