If you bought castor lure you dont need to add anything. If your collecting your own castor, you should probably add some glycerin or something to give it some stickyness.

Go to the drugstore and buy a bottle of glycerine. Mix small amounts until you get the desired consistency.

Get the glycerin or odorless petroleum jelly (Vaseline). If you get the Vaseline, warm some in a double boiler and mix your castor. I can’t tell you the ratio since I’ve not done it in a very long time. I’d just say to keep adding the castor until you can smell it pretty well. I’ve made it in the past and it’s worked very well for me. I don’t recall if I had any problems with freezing.

I don’t imagine anyone has taken pictures of mixing castor with glycerin or Vaseline (it’s pretty easy) so you may be stuck with these instructions.

Hope this helps,

Bob

Here is a recipe that will work for you. Take a 4 gallon bucket and fill it half up with fresh hardwood wood chips (like a brush hog will spit out). I often will pick up from where a road crew has done some ditch clearing of willows. In a quart of water mix two sets of fresh castors well chopped up and shaken and slosh this into the wood chips. With a cup of gliserine add the contents of one male beaver's oil sac. Mix up everything really well in the wood chips and you have a week's supply.

As you take beaver squeeze out a little of their castor juice and add to the bucket as it improves your chips. Just throw out a nice hand full at each set on a muddy slicked up mud pile.

Note: Sharpen your knives.
