And they are protected wildlife, so you can't kill them. Indeed, you aren't even allowed to move them out of the area! So what tends to happen is that you get someone to trap them and block the holes, the trapped possums get taken away, you hope that all the holes that they got into have been found and blocked... and then the possums come back again, finding some other hole that wasn't blocked. Or else all the holes were blocked, but not all the possums were removed, and they die and stink up your house with a smell you can never remove...
It has been something I ought to have dealt with, but it has been in the too-hard basket... (sigh)
