Ideal would be be color stained at the top, white-ish in the middle and yellow-ish near the skin. A good place to get an entire bag full ? The county fair, when 4-H kids are shearing their show lambs ! A poke hole with the 'yellow-ish end' barely protruding and a fresh dropping has nailed a good many sharp coyote. (why the yellow end ? That's where the lanolin smell (wool grease) is the highest concentrate) LT G Hey LT I have a old can of Bag Balm maybe i'll give that a try olden tyred

I used to use cotton balls but switched to sheep's wool about a decade ago. You can see my trapping videos here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLzz2W-npOplJfxzwSVOl1a1UeY1LM3TO5
