Try a little salted beaver with anise oil as
A lure! Make sure you put out enough
Traps, not just one or two!

If I can catch summertime weasels on fish flavored cat food, I can't imagine Kasey's recipe not working in a squirrel sized cage.

Use a box with trap or coni as usual but make yourself a wire box big enough and strong enough to hold a live small rabbit. Mouse might work also. Keep it feed, watered and in the shade and if the rest are put up for a few days, you should nail him pretty fast.

The weasels don't want old beaver when they can have a fresh kill.

I think weasels are made to kill. So, tempt them with a live rabbit for bait.
