Is it the glycerin or alcohol that one uses/adds to castor lure that will prevent mold form starting in lure. Also, will/can glycerin dilute the strength of the lure by how much you add. The lure is stored in a dark cool basement but could as easily be put in the spare fridge with the coyote lure.

Glycerine can mute the odor.

And yea, vodka will help prevent mold. I like to use a 25 percent vodka 75 percent glycerine mix

Vodka is used to prevent mold.
