You're right in a situation like yours the only real way to stop them is to build a cage around your plants. I know a lot of people have theories about how or what stops Possums eating your garden. The only way to be absolutely certain is to build a physical barrier between your plants and the outside world. Good Luck Russ Hi Hel,

Sometimes I think the kiwis have the right idea when it comes to possums. I hope you can fortify the wire - maybe a small electric current? The little bastards!
