Thanks Keith.
so when I mix up the sugar borax water solution do I lay the paper towell over the colony holes and then apply the solution.and do you re soak every day for the 4 days?

Lots of brown mink have pink noses and footpads.

I have caught them in late june and seen them hiding in the dam around the same time frame with the tittie female caught on the crossover,so about 2-3 weeks old and they cannot dive.About the size of a small muskrat.

Hahaha

Every State in the nation has different laws. So quit putting people down for the state laws.

Very Ugalally

Probably got a belly full of fawn.

I am making up 70 or so 6’ trap chains with a big ring on one end for making a loop around a dry pole under the ice…to be quick clipped to a beaver foothold for baited sets, in the event I ever do that again.

I used 91 octane nonoxy 5 or 6 to one, and hung everything up in my greenhouse with the doors wide open…they dried quickly enough. Water traps only.

Cool photo

I hunted south of Thompson many years ago, no people, 1000s of ducks and 100s of sharptails. Can't imagine it's changed much.

When she out-grows the cabin, if built correctly, you may find other uses for it, so I would build it right. Depending on log size, you could stack the first row on treated 4"x material. I would simply use galvanized spikes throughout, pining the first course to the 4x material, and end-spiking the log end together. Pre-drill for the spike, of course using a slightly smaller bit than the spike. Structural screws are very expensive, also.
