Mainly coyote sets but happens with anything using foot holds. Have high deer population and not attracting with scents. Do you have any tricks?

You're not using urine or anything? Only thing I found is that when I use urine, I have more deer-tripped traps.

Some sets yes but even ones without they cant held but to come over and molest.

Try to make the sets somewhere the Deer are unlikely to tread, like between 2 trees against a large rock etc. Will also help control the direction the target is using.
