I like miniature marshmallows. Scatter a few on the ground next to the trap.
Must be nice to eat ice cream as fast as you want and not have to worry about brain freeze.

There are as many answers as there are trappers to this question. The best I have ever used is ADC's Barnes' Cherry Bend-Over Raccoon Bait. Its a sticky fish based preserved bait that works great all season long. I've had excellent results with that bait too. Is it available again?

I have a fresh batch of a few gallons available by week's end.

I use everything dry inside the DP , put used fish frying oil around it for attraction. Traps never need cleaning on the inside.
