I'd bet it was the chicken that got the reaction. Gets the same reaction here. They will dig craters for it.


If it makes a track on this earth , I can catch it.

Ground beaver tails that have been sitting thru summer and making oil will make them dig.

The oil can be mixed with a meat of your choice as a bait solution.

BTO or ground beaver tails making oil need no preservative. It is self preserving.

Add a touch of skunk or any other oils for a super change up.

BTO and ground beaver tails is one of my main coyote baits and lure ingredient.

Put some ground beaver tail that is making oil in front of a domestic dog and watch what he does.

It is and more than likely will always be my go to lure i have been putting it to the test for the last three years make two sets 10 feet apart use well knowm lures in one just bto in the other out performed every one so far but one.But that was a bait.Ive always used it in flat set hole with a stake driver pour in teaspoon amount, and ive put it up against some good lures, the best combination I have found was foxcream and bto. Made numerous first nite catches, I will go back to some of my old sets after season and the yotes will still be digging at the hole 2 months later. They dig at it hard enough a lot of times the hole will be their the next season ready for a trap and a new hole&bto. The smell is hard to describe mix between sac oil and castor with a smokey under tone.Any time I draw any out of my rendering jug the smell clings to your clothing,soon as I walk in the door my dogs start drewling and whining and my wife starts cussing

and I honestly don't believe they want it in their mouth as much as they do on them the new cologne for yotes i've always put it in a hole put a few drips on log backing and usualy find it feet away from set. Wish I had some trail cams that didn't flash I would get to the bottom of their obsession, It also works for juicing up a scent post

Do you just grind and let them sit and render? In the sun or shed? Any other additions during the aging?

Thanks

bto will work on numerous animals and all predators. Some guys catch beaver and otters using it lol I never have but that's not saying it wont work. It's got a strong musk smell unlike any thing but to me it smells very similar to gator oil. I suspect it is a strong curiosity smell to other fur bearers

I chunk the tails so they will grind easier. Its good that I have a friend with a very, very large grinder. I put the ground tails in vented 5 gallon buckets and then put the buckets in an old chest freezer. Fill the buckets only about 2/3 full to allow room for the oil. Needs to sit through a hot summer.

Neighborhood dogs have stole two pint containers of this out of my truck over the years. They did not bother any of the other baits, lures or urines that were there. They crushed the plastic containers, ate all the BT bait and licked the container clean...

yep wolf that has happened to me as well! Had it happen at a farmers house one day during season the farmer appologized over and over! I saw it roll in some I laughed and told him you wont be sorry later. I had a neighbors cat knock a jar over trying to rub all over it! Thank heaven it was on a short shelf and landed on a soft patch of grass. Honestly ive yet to find a animal that's not a little bit interested in getting a snout full. Even livestock act mesmerized by it. Al her sense of smell is shot so im safe but she can detect skunk!!!!

Venting isn't needed and leave in sun all summer.

yessir

after running a batch, the chunks and bone work GREAT in dirtholes, just like the oil.

For the doubters, I think about 10 of the testimonials on my website are catches with BTO.

I've found this thread a good read! I think it was last week someone was talking about yote trapping and he said he wouldn't go yote trapping without a bottle of BTO.

I had no idea what BTO was until I was on F&T's website and BTO was for sale. Since I was ordering anyway I had them send a bottle of it. And at $5 a bottle thats pretty cheap lure compared to some of the lures I ordered.

Can't wait to give it a try next season.

I’ve had good luck with Bto on the pipe set and the compass set. That being said I’ve had good luck with back breaker and a lure I made with rotted sacks too. I would have to say the coyotes in this part of the country like beaver and beaver parts,lol !
