I accidently hit on in the snow. This damn white pink eyed evil looking bastard son of satan himself killed by a 1987 chrysler lebaran GTS. However not quite the poor thing was squarming and rolling around I had to run it over 5 times more until I was sure it was dead. Oh god I felt horrible but I wasn't going to pick it up and take it to the vets. Ugh. Damn thing just wouldn't die. Tortured me the whole time.

Well, if some animal is seriously injured and you can't help, it's better to put it out of its misery than to have it suffer 'til it dies.

Well, today I just found a hole in my garage behind the heater. Apparently, they chewed through the wood. I now hate opossums. They must die! They all must die! I will shoot every single one I see with my silencer (not that I have one ). Tomorrow, I must call the pest controllers or something. Not only are they a nuissance, but they are destroying my house. Nobody or thing will destroy my house without eating some lead.

If possible, I will put some poison into that hole, of which my pets have no access to, only those bastards. What kind of poison would you recommend for those possums? Thanks!

Don't poison them. They crawl into imposssible places, swell up to the size of basketballs and explode. You'll never ever get the stink out.

Lead poison works the best!

If this is true, then I won't do it. I'd still have to consult with the pest controllers.

It's true trust me...

a havahart trap and waffles...then take them for a ride somewhere. If your feeling animal friendly turn them loose in the same place.

Well, as I had said a while back, I would never want to kill any animal. If I didn't have a phobia for certain animals, e.g. spiders, snakes, possums, etc., I would trap these possums and release them far away. But since I'm a chicken shit (only to certain animals, not in general ), I'd rather have someone else do it for me.

So they'd blow up, huh? That's very odd! I thought once the poison hits their central nervous systems, they would just lie down and die. Blowing up is very wierd and cruel.

Is this the name of the trap? If so, where can I buy one? I will need one tomorrow. Thank you!

I called the pest controllers, but too expensive, so I'm going to trap them myself and drive them to a far far away place and let them roam in the jungle.
