Mice as bait

Would wild mice work well as bait? It would be easy to buy a few packages of mousetraps and set 8-12 at a time or so to get a batch of mice. I could process them somehow buy cutting them up or something. Besides that they are plentiful.

We made are own rat and mouse bait and it works really good.

My mouse recipe
8 mice cut up fine and tainted for a day
3 tablespoons of bacon grease
1 table spoon of salmon oil
3-4 squirts of fox urine
And preserve it how ever you want

Throw a couple mice down your dirt hole

I'd say mice would be FIRE on the coyotes and fox.

I bet coons would eat 'em too.

Weasels love 'em

I use mice a lot in dirt holes. I freeze them in summer. Use whole mouse in hole. It acts as bait & lure holder! Don't forget to cover with a bit of grass

Caught my first coyote with nothing more than a mouse in a dirthole

Last winter we used shrew and it worked pretty well.

I agree. To them it,`s like ice cream.

I've had a single fox take 6 or 7 mice in 4 days ...so yes thay like them ALOT

no clue for anything else but I love mice

Mice are a main food item for fox and coyotes. If you ever see one in a field,stop and watch them, in their quest for mice. It is a very entertaining show.
