Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Never had much issue with scent on my snares or supports, i dont boil either. I do however spray flat tan on my snares ( in june ) do it when they are coiled so it is a broken pattern when uncoiled. Support wires are left natural, i live in county with millions of miles of rusty barbwire that coyotes dont even bat a eye at rusty wire here.

I don't treat my supports which usually involve 14 ga wire attached to a tree or bush. Coyotes and wolves are very familiar with human scent, wire, cable, and chain debris in the bush from logging etc. Just get in, set and get out as quickly as possible and you will have little problem.
The only constant in trapping is change so keep learning.

I don't treat my snare supports at all the coyotes don't care they've seen fences and wire as well as quickly host of other things out in the hills so your supports will be forgotten about before you know it.

I make my own supports out of # 9 wire, and weld a 20 penny nail on the bottom with about 2” of overlap. Just push them into soft ground or bend wire over and drive them into frozen or hard ground.

I dip my snares in Brown FORMULA ONE Listen to what he's saying Dont have a tree or bush ? PLANT one where you want it.

I hang mine on the fence, or by cattle corrals. So just rusty for me works good.
Let me sugar coat this
