Question:
"We just had the lovely experience of discovering an opossum in our bedroom. My cat and I got it to retreat through the way which it came - an access panel under the bathtub that was open. Our house is a double-wide mobile home. The manufacturer cut a large hole in the floor under the tub for piping. Currently access to the hole was achieved because of a shower drain leak that I had not yet repaired. Under the house there is a layer of material attached to the underside of the floor joists. I noticed a damaged section this summer, and cut it away and removed the soaked insulation. I was planning on fixing it this weekend before the cold weather hit. I intended on filling the hole with foam as we had a mouse come through there last winter. My fear is in finishing the repair I may trap the opossum or others that may be hiding in the insulation. Is it possible to check without tearing it all out - maybe a trap to lure anything out if it's there"? Trudy, Los Angeles CA |
