Opossums stop the spread of Lyme disease because they kill up to 4,000 ticks a week. Claims about possums and ticks are mostly true â but the amount of ticks one possum kills in a week has been skewed.
The opossum is an omnivorous animal and will eat almost anything that it can find. Opossums mainly feed on insects, frogs, birds, snakes, small mammals, and earthworms. The opossum is also a great scavenger and will feed on left over kills of other animals along with road-kill.
