SOLVING
OPOSSUM PROBLEMS
Opossum
drooling and hissing:
| |
Opossums
are highly resistant to rabies. By opening its mouth, showing its
50 pointy teeth and hissing, they are trying to scare you away with
their fierceness. They don't have many defense mechanisms, which is
why they often play dead when scared. Just leave the Opossum alone
and the animal will wander away.

In
the Yard, Garbage or under the House:
|
|
Place
ammonia-soaked rags, mothballs in socks, and/or cayenne pepper in
strategic places surrounding the area most frequented by opossums.
|
|
|
Brightly
light the area. This is annoying to nocturnal animals.
|
|
|
Try
a loud radio day and night near the area. Rap music works best
