Arboreal Marsupials on New England wool properties

Product Information

Arboreal marsupials are possums, gliders and their relatives, which live mainly in tree canopies. They fulfill an important role in farmland timber - the natural control of dieback-causing insects and parasitic mistletoes. Timber is important in providing shade and shelter for livestock and pasture productivity. Both dieback and mistletoes can debilitate and kill farm trees. Arboreal marsupial species vary in their diet, so a range of species offers a more comprehensive pest control service.
