The opossum is the only marsupial native to North America. Like kangaroos, it carries its children in a pouch, and possums have existed since the age of dinosaurs. Possums benefit the ecosystem immeasurably and should be welcomed in your yard. They eat cockroaches, other insects, snails, mice, rats, fruit, plants, eggs, frogs, birds, snakes, roadkill, and people's food. Unlike rodents, possums have high immunity to disease and tend to be a low health risk for humans, even less than cats and dogs.
Opossums tend to be active at night, roaming woods and alleys. Because they have long hairless tails, possums are often mistaken for rats. As stated previously, they eat rats and mice and the horror of city-living cockroaches. Should you find one camping out in your yard, thank your stars; it will keep the pests away.
