I trap coon in town for people using this method: In the back of my livetrap I run a piece of baling wire about half way up all the way across the back of the trap. Wire it on one side. Then I will place 4 or 5 marshmellows on the wire (just like putting them on for roasting) then hook the wire on the other side. Dont wrap it to tight because it will be easier to rebait the trap. After you get that done use ANISE oil you can get it a the supermarket. It smell like black licorecce. It doesnt take alot a bottle will last me a month or more. This bait will not catch dogs, cats ect.. It only works on coons. I use this bait in town with no worries about non target animals. I hope this post will help someone out thank you
