to catch a possum put a can of tuna or sardines in a trap it works everytime,also good for catching coons

Ok..... I took ya'lls advice and sprinkled flour around hole last night... and it worked....


so... I found my trap and put a can of tuna in it....... It is an OLD trap so if he actually can not find his way out.... what do I do with him.

If I catch a possum.... then what? I do not want to release him in this neighborhood and I do not have a gun. What are you suppossed to do with them?

Carefully pick up the trap so you can't get bit (helps if you have some wire loops already on it so you're not near the cage with your hands.

Put into a trash can full of water.

If that's too harsh for you, cover with a tarp and rig a dryer vent hose from a tailpipe and gas them.

i can drown him no problem.... thanks.....


I am learning how to dress a chicken tomorrow so I certainly need to know how to kill a chicken killer....

Thank you very much.. My old trap is pretty rickety.... if it holds him all night I will do the deed at first light.... if the Tuna is gone... and no critter than I will have to borrow a better trap. I do not want to train a preditor to come near coop for tuna.... LOL
