I caught a big boar coon at creek earlier this year using peppermint oil, then it rained and the creek was too deep to retrieve my trap. when the water went down I went down there and I could still smell the peppermint after a week of being underwater. Put some out at a dirthole that wasn't getting any action and the next day a coyote dug out the trap. Has anyone ever used mint oil as a call lure for canines with any luck?

I have experimented with peppermint and received a general positive response. It is said by so-called animal experts that all animal species are somewhat starved for sugar in their diets and are therefore attracted to sweet odors. Ace

I have caught a few coon on anise, and was wondering if it would have the same effect k9's as the peppermint.
