Don't know if u have mulberries down there but around here coyotes and every other animal gorge themselves on them when they are ripe. Coyotes will leave droppings around the area if they are using that tree. Aren't ripe here yet. I'm seeing lots of bugs in coyote droppings here right now. Any fruits that might be ripening there might be a place to look

If you have large ag fields (peanut and cotton fields) where your trapping.....that is where they are. The food is there...along the field edges....rabbits, rats, berries, fawn out in the open, etc.

Funny you mentioned the dog food, my son and I discussed that today as well. Of course I imagine every coon and possum within a mile would be all over it as well seeing how that’s what we use as bait in the DP’s. Yes I do get a few of them ,but not that many as I do in the winter. I had a better response from the coyotes when i added the used cooking oil to the dog food. Our biggest problem in the south is ants when I put my bait hole in I try to stay away from visible ant beds if possible.

We have the same exact issue with ants!!!
My sons boss found out I trap so my son now traps the smaller critters at his workplace and decided he wanted to go in with me on my pay jobs. All the money goes to our out of state trip account. He’s heck on the coons and possums and learning quickly about ants too, lol. It’s pretty nice to have a trapping partner, especially when it’s your own child.

WannaBe, there’s a guy on the GON forum who has been catching coyotes in the last month and he said he put some kind of ant killer down around his sets. I don’t know that I’d have the confidence to not get refusals to try it, but it worked for him Ok. Let me go a head and say = this ^^^^^ works. Guy I gave lessons to in Alabama is using it. He catches 100-175 coyotes a year in Alabama. Its scentless ant posion sold at Wal Mart. For anyone interesed. It works. No refusals so far

This is like one of those Saudi Princes calling you and telling you they want to give you $250 million…sounds to good to be true. This would make Southern trapping so much better. Heck, I’ll try it!
