You can trap weasels in the summer winter in better time. Don't know if you have weasels in Ohio.

I don't know about today's situation but in the early 70s I caught several weasels in the Hocking Hills area of SE Ohio. All long tail weasels but they never turned white there.

Yes theres weasels all across ohio. Long, short and least weasels. Not seen the the short-tails but caught long tailed and cats like to drop of least weasels occasionally.

Dont need snow to catch them, it just makes it easier because they move more, you can find sign of em easier, and they're more likely to come to bait.

My grandma had a cat drag up one lol but they seem like cool little critters so I’m thinking of making some milk jug boxes for them and I was wondering, would a whole mouse work for bait?

i know they cost a bit but the cheap ammo boxes from harbor freight make for good weasel boxes. just need a hole saw and a victor big yellow pan rat trap and you're good to go.

Problem with milk jugs is if you dont clean them immediately after theyre emptied, theyll knock you out when you open em.
