    @Mooseman Can I preorder a copy of your book, reckon it will be a good read
    @time out I'm not sure about possums being colorblind but there is heaps of evidence out there that they are attracted to white.

    Pretty sure thats the reason for the white shroud on the sentinel. Or the trapinator being made from white plastic.

    As for the Possum master, i have had one for 18mths. It has caught two possums but failed to kill either of them. In both cases the the rope noose caught them by the leg just above the foot.



    I also noticed when i first started using it that the apple kept disappearing but the trap not going off. A camera showed that rats were eating it, so just feeding them really!

    Thus i have only found this trap to be moderately successful. I understand some people use them on cats ?!

    Good to hear you are getting involved with more community trapping your knowledge will be greatly valuable to them
