They eat the carrots & whole kernel corn we put out for the rabbits & deer

whole kernel corn is a bait I have bunch of

there was a spill near by , and it was just going to go to waste so the kids went and shoveled up 2 barrels.

it has gravel in it not much but enough so no one wanted to scoop it up and run it in a feed grinder.

A 160 in front of the hole. If you have problems with domestics just put a wire cage over the trap. If Its the chucks den it will have to come out at some point.

I got 4 a week ago with a body gripper in front of the hole. When and where I need to use cages I like using stuff like chunks of cabbage, celery and radishes.and carrots, they have good eye appeal and the hold up pretty well over time. They are also stuff I can grow or have around.

I caught 2 last week.

One of the members here said to put a conibear 160 over the hole. Within 1 day of setting it Mr. Chuck tried to dash through it and wasn't fast enough. The next morning Mrs. Chuck gave it a good try but she also came up short out running the grip.

This is a good topic.
Stole an idea from this post.
Baited cage with banana and BOOM a coon.

I want some groundhog gland lure.
Why? Cause I've never tried it.
Who has?

PS Saw a red fox sniffing around
the rodent den, so one tactic is NA.

I am setting cages at a place where other traps can not be used. I have caught several animals here over the years. There are a lot of woodchucks in the area. I use a mix of celery, carrots, lettece and small marshmallows and as mentioned above muskmelon has worked the best with that combo.
