Growing up in Florida we had a saying that you could tell the season’s change by the road kill.
Possum, armadillos and vultures.
Possums, by far the most plentiful. Ugly stupid, slow.
A good whack with a street broom MAY cause them to “play Possum” then a garbage bag and a trip to the nearest lake, river, forested area would be appropriate.
Trapped them live in the attic, shoveled them out, dead and leaking from the attic, trapped them in the garden eating my beautiful eggplants.
No sympathy, kill the bastard!
