Possums in Australia are a real mess. They are becoming more and more common and invading several houses every year. They love taking up shelter in roofs and ceilings, thereby keeping the residents awake all night.

You may have seen these bizarre, even ugly animals at night while driving your car. They look almost like a rat, and almost like a weasel, they're about the size of a cat, but they are more closely related to koalas and kangaroos. Possums are mammals that keep their young ones in a pouch on their body. Possums are nocturnal, which is why most of the times they are seen on the road at night.
