Very clean cages (no other animal smells)
Fresh bait (broccoli,cabbage,melons)
Positive sets are always best.

Thanks monster toms. I have a couple to trap in town
Agreed
Positive set as much as possible.
Cantaloupe, cabbage and apples when baiting. Can cover bottom of cage with dirt to help make them more comfortable

Thanks I really appreciate the tips. I am setting up two different houses tomorrow. I have never caught one so I am excited to try.
