If you are talking about the round tubes, I have problems with the 6 in. ones. However, the 8 in. ones work just fine for me.

I use the square, white plastic traps, has 8" opening. I have good success using cheap, can cat food in chicken flavor.

Old fella told me once to use crickets in warmer weather to catch skunks. Skunks eat lots of bugs during warm weather he said. The crickets can last several days, and nothing else will enter the trap except skunks. Never tried it, but during this time of year it would be easy to get crickets and try I guess.


I trap for fun. I skin 'em for the money!
