Does anyone use it for fox trapping? As you would a mouse nest, under a hay set, dirt hole, etc?

I have been sprinkling it all over my sets a little bigger than the trap bed. I've caught 3 nice reds off 1 property. I can't say whether it helps or not, but it didn't hurt.

We'll see how it works. I made a hay set and spread a few cups around the trap before covering with chopped hay. Lured with Prairie King and castor.

Cat litter works pretty good.

I belong to a pheasant preserve club. The holding pen has a base layer of crushed stone to keep everything dry. On top of that we have a 4 or 5 inch layer of straw. I clean it out every 4 weeks or so and use that for my version of a hay set/pipe dream set. Stinky, but it works rather well. The fox sometimes get a pass, the coyotes not so much.

We get more opossums on the bird manure we dump than any other furbearers by far, but raccoons, skunks, coyotes and fox also visit it.
