Common Brushtail Possums produce cylindrical pellets (droppings) that vary in size and colour due to their wide variety of diet. The pellets are usually found as a group of individual pellets or may be grouped in clumps or as strings (from hair or plant material ingested). Common Ringtail Possums also produce cylindrical pellets that are generally smaller than those of the Common Brushtail Possum. The pellets are usually found in groups of 3-6, have a granulated surface and both ends are usually rounded. Pellet colour varies with diet. Rats produce narrow cylindrical pellets with one or both ends pointed. Pellet colour varies with diet but is commonly dark brown or black.
