Trapping

[TheGman]

I had a chance this week to set a few traps for three days.
caught two possums and one fat dog.

The dog is fine the possums are among the departed.

while I do not dislike coons or possums they wreak havoc on qround nesters such as quail and turkey .

Just FYI,

Possum eat between 3,000-6,000 tics in a year.

They are the only real predators as far as tics are concerned. They actually seek them out.

Just FYI.

Leave the Armadillos if you see them, they wreak havoc on ground bugs and especially ticks!

Which is the exact reason my wife goes nuts if I threaten to dispatch one in the yard. They do eat the ticks!

the opossums are supposed to be treated as friendlies, 10-4

Opossums & Ticks - are they really eating those 8-legged pests? — Severson Dells Nature Center

We at Severson Dells love science. Science answers so many questions about the world around us. The thing is, science is constantly being updated with new information. Sometimes this is awesome, and other times it leads to confusion. Take for example the classic “bats eat 1200 mosquitoes an hour

I would grant them a free pass, but they eat turkey eggs and the eggs of other ground dwelling birds.
