There's a skunk ( or more ) tearing open, and contaminating the horse
feed in my barn .... I can tell by the aroma .
From time to time I get 'possums or '***** playing that game and I've
had no trouble catching them in my live-trap . These "guys" aren't
reacting to the bait I normally use .
Got any ideas on what I should be using ? The food they're ruining
is to expensive for this to go on any length time .
The best fish type over all is stinky salmon eggs. We all have fish nets that we put in the Yukon for kings & chums. When we clean the fish, I always drop the egg roe sacks in their own buckets, seal type lid and either freeze or bury in the cold ground(perma frost). I alway shave 5-10 5 gallon buckets of eggs. We use for trapping marten, hang high in tree in bucket for bear, (they smell it for miles), and wire burlap bags to small brushy trees. It works way better than anything and actualy, they only bait I keep as an attractant. TRy it out.
MY COUSIN CATCHES BABY SKUNKS AND DE MUSK THEM AND SEVERAL PEOPLE WANT THEM FOR PETS SAY THEY MAKE GREAT PETS . HE DOES NOT KEEP THEM HAS A WAITING LIST ????
I DO NOT THINK I WILL GET ONE ?? WIFE WANTS ONE ??
SO HERE WE GO ???
BLIND BUD
Tonight I'm trying peanut butter .... last night it was apples ( sliced to cause more aroma ) .
What I found this A.M. was no apple slices, trap sprung, nothing inside .
I think I'm smelling skunk .... but, I haven't seen anything .
Get a 155 or 160 body grip trap and set it OUTSIDE the barn. Those traps will take care of the live skunk syndrome. Make a cubby and bait w/ the stuff mentioned-fish is excellent.
I was trying to edit the older post, I screwed something up and ended up making a new post. I thought it was weird that it would let me edit such an old post. Oops
