If it freezes add a little glycerin to it. Try freezing it first though. It may already have anti freeze in it

Ok I gave some to the wife's cousin and he cant bring it in the house cause it smells pretty good. So he asked if it would freeze and I dont know so I figured I'd ask if he doesn't have glycerin (which I assume is the case) is there something household used he might try. Like salt or mineral oil?

Thank you Danny for responding. I dont want to seem ungrateful that is good advise I just am not sure he has it on hand.

Does he have a Wallmart or other big box pharmacy nearby? Our Wallyworld has pharmaceutical grade glycerin in the otc drugstore. It doesn’t take much to freeze proof bait. Non iodized salt will work also.
