Re: Selby plant sale NOW Possums

You're right to worry.  Possums don't generally bother anything, but when
provoked, watch out.  I hear they have very sharp teeth.
The only thing I can suggest is to eliminate whatever is attracting the
possum, though I couldn't tell you what that might be.  The one that visits
here used to come regularly when I left cat food out.  Now it's only a very
infrequent visit.  But if it has a nest on your property or near, it may
have already settled in if pregnant.  You may have to chain the dog or have
the nest removed.
