For you canine trappers and users of Propylene Glycol, do you prefer to mix it with coyote urine or water or both?

I don't dilute it. Just doesn't make sense to me. Sure, it won't mist from a spray bottle...but it will spray on stream and soak the bed nicely. First time it rains, it's diluted. Therefore my little brain thinks mine will last longer than diluted mixes. Last longer and perform better. I don't like to wonder how my traps will perform. A gallon jug is $25 at tractor supply and you can soak plenty of trap beds with it.


Next year I may goto flip top bottles. Will probably work better for how I apply it.

I've always used it straight undiluted in the past but this season I started mixing it 50/50 with water and seems to be doing fine. I've never mixed it with urine. Ogorman advises diluting with urine when traps start getting dirty from catches or rusting to extend their use without treating again. I personally don't use any urine in the trap bed only on backing or in the hole.

Been using an old gatorade bottle for years. Don't dilute it, mauser has it right.

I dilute it with just enough water to get it through a spray bottle, maybe 10 percent.

When I bought it at a trapping convention, the dealer recommended mixing 50/50 with water.
