When "Three In One" oil first came out (glass bottle, cork top) it was considered a good trapping lure.....

Anyway, the thing that turned out to be best was 80/87 octane avgas. This was back in the day when there was lead in the gas and 80/87 was used in every Cub that was chasing wolverines & wolves.

80/87 is no longer produced.

Maybe Gulo or Pete will respond
Also, wasn’t it Bushman involved in wolverine studies that found turpentine one of the better attractants ?

Diesel has sulfides in it, not sure about gas. Sulfides is what makes rotten eggs smell. I think rancid butter is also sulfides. Makes cannines want to poop.

I would imagine soy- based biodiesel would be somewhat attractive to canines.

Sulfur is what kills the mange, the oil is just the "carrier" to apply the sulfur.

Did you know EVERYONE on the internet knows more about the care of livestock than the guy who actually cares for the livestock?

Yep, look up "hog oiler". Contraption with a wheel that when a big runs on it, it applies oil to the hog.

Hope this works, Here is Ryan at the start of the fuel haul. I hired him and the Boys for that job There was a bunch of drums out there. Tried to patch that leaky one, did a pretty good job but enough got out to make a wolf trail. I think I hauled that drum in an aluminum sled so further containment but must have had a pin hole. Drum was still mostly full back in AK. Flex seal was not invented yet. I under budgeted so Ryan went out with a reduced crew to finish off the last couple drums lucky guy.

What the (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) kind of bugs do yall have up there in Misery? I have never heard of such a thing and still wish I hadn't,

Maybe you could just start calling them Claire McCaskle bugs? grin

Del Kramer said coyotes would seek out oil spills on the ground and rolled and scratcher in it. Thought they did it to kill fleas and other bugs.
