OT: Another good use for a fishnet
My friend called me, hysterical..."I have possums in my house!"
So I grabbed a broom, a bucket, a bin and a large fish net and drove over to her house. The way she sounded on the phone I figured they were BIG possums...but the two were just little guys. I scooped them up with the big net, put them in a bucket and called a wildlife rehabilitator for advice. see, fish nets can be handy for more than just fish

 As I had them on my lap, petting them....I told her they were the size of 'jumbo feeder rats'/approx. 7-8 inches long she said they would be best let out in the woods. She said since they were out of their mothers pouch that they could fend for themselves. We found where they got into the house, boarded it up and then took them way back into the woods and released them. The entire time Peggy kept saying "you better not bring those home...Tom will kill you!!" So no "poor tom" ending to this one PS....before they 'play possum' the sure make some scary growl noises.
