Dog proof traps

[Snareman2]

I use cheap dry cat food. Sometimes a little fish oil in the cat food container. If you find something is eating your bait, it might be mice. And yes, I have caught mice in dog proofs, pretty much pinches them in half. In order to prevent the mice situation, I started placing a golf ball on the top of the trap after it is baited and set. The coon sees the white ball and easily moves it to get to the goodies. The mice can not get past the golf ball, so your set will be ready and waiting just for your target animal. Good luck!

Bait????

I use sardines Or herring, p-nut butter, or mix up my own concoction of crushed up cat food mixed with menhaden oil

They

Do they make a cooking device to set them?
My hands are so broken up its all I can do to set one is there a trick to it?
Going to trap some coons and possums this fall and need to get me a few.

have a tool you can set them with, or, a big screwdriver works.
Double spring conibears are my nemesis

Where do you guys buy these at? I’ve got a coon problem at my house. I’ve tried live traps and they always tear a hole in the side of them and get the bait out.

$13-$14 is about the best you’ll do. Easy enough to find out if a site is legit or not. Google reviews of site. If a scam, people are screaming. Try the trapping sites.
Scheels is legit.
