Thank you, thank you for the pepper hint. I have a 'possum that sneaks in occasionally and I sure want that critter out. I bought one of those expensive ultra sonic devices to keep him out of my bedroom, but they are high priced and I am also concerned about health effects with long term use. I will buy some pepper today and try to catch Ms Possum and transport her to another part of the county. 'Possums stink for those of you who have never had one visit.
