    Trapping Coons- Best bait to use

    And deerman, i hope you don't think that I'm setting poison out with the idea that if somebody's pet eats it, whatever. I've been doing my best to take what precautions are necessary to avoid our pets getting into the stuff. Our goats and sheep are in that pen. So if they get it, it'd be my...

    Trapping Coons- Best bait to use

    Excuse my lack of understanding. But isn't the point of putting an egg in the trap so that a coon will get in there and get the egg, but you can leave the egg in there every night until something gets it. No soggy/stale bread or old sardines to worry about getting out. So if i crack an egg in...

    Trapping Coons- Best bait to use

    Our only neighbors are family members. Their cat is old and senile and stays under the porch. Our cats rarely go up there. Only thing that would get in the trap would be some sort of varmint. Which is the point of setting the trap.

    Trapping Coons- Best bait to use

    I've tried eggs. no luck. Bread is what got them in there the other night even though he did get back out without getting trapped. Baited the trap last night, went up there and checked it and something had gotten in there, eaten the bread and got back out. So perhaps he's dead somewhere...

    Trapping Coons- Best bait to use

    I baited the bait tonight. I sprinkled some Golden Malrin on the honey on the bread. I backed the back of the trap up against the fence and put the bread at the very back of the trap. So even if the poison doesn't work, the trap should get him. And before any of y'all fuss at me for using...

    Trapping Coons- Best bait to use

    Well seeing as how i have 8 oclock college classes, it's not feasible for me to stay up at night and hunt coons. not to mention 1) i don't like guns. 2) i'm a horrible shot. 3) i'd end up shooting one of the goats/sheep on accident.

    Trapping Coons- Best bait to use

    Well the varmint/whatever it was got in the trap last night and ate the bread. But didn't trigger the trap. Will have to work on that. So he has to step on the trap to get the bread. But at least now i know what he wants.

    Trapping Coons- Best bait to use

    We killed the possum but i think it's coons. Something is climbing on top of the pen and chewing the wire on top into and then getting down in there, killing chickens and climbing back out. So it can't be a fox or hawk or owl. I don't think the possum would be that resourceful.

    Trapping Coons- Best bait to use

    I've tried sardines for several nights in a row and still haven't gotten anything but a possum. What's the best bait you've used that's had the best results for catching coons. I've got to catch these boogers!
