This time of year...in a cage trap for a nuisance coon...what's Yinz using ? And thanks

I use these all the time. Get at dollar store. Slips right through the mesh of the trap from above , easy baiting.
Any brand will work.

Thanks Cragar

cat food or marshmallows its cheap and you can find them anwhere

Been using the wafers for 25 years. Other flavors work, but strawberry works best. I add a squirt of fish oil from cage to 6-8' out for trailing scent. Raccoons, skunks and opossum. At certain times gray squirrels like them too.

Thanks All !
I let my friend borrow my cage trap for a coon that ate a hole in the side of his garage.
Been using Marshmallows for decades...

But just wanted to tell him a back up ..food.

Thanks Nessy

I'd need ten boxes of those. I like them better than marshmallows. I think I will buy ten boxes of those and marshmallows so that I will have enough marshmallows leftover for actual bait.

I like to use a drop of apple oil in the cage and and trail with it about 6 feet apart
Along with mini marshmallows.
Always used meow mix and a couple large marshmallows stuck to the pan. Cat food goes on the pan and behind it also.

Dry cat food, the cheap kind works fine.

I flip the trap over and push marshmallows up through the trap. A couple towards the front and several under the pan. Put something heavy on top so it doesn’t get flipped over.
