Thank you!! Mine has dug tunnels entirely around the perimeter of my house, thru my septic field and is driving my dogs crazy. So glad to find this post!!❤
@@zmblion 5.56 works everytime. The bad thing is if you dont get a clean shot, they run under ones deck and stink for about 2 months. Just got a trap and now have to figure how to set it.🤨
Nice instructions 👍 Apples work very well too, I hang half an apple with a wire like you, make small chunks of the other half and use as leading trail, never fails for me.
Just caught our "Goffie" or Goffeetta". Used a plan similar to what we see here. Did not have bait. Did buy green beans, cabbage and carrots. Did not worry about scent or de-scenting trap. Placed trap near his hole. Land scaper re- located it for $25.
Looks good. I've used melons and apples too, but by the time I get to the job, I've already eaten most of it. LOL. Best to skip the bait and end the worries in a maintenance free set up. You can use a double door cage at a den, at a did out under a fence, along a wall, in trails and you can drift fence them too. Seems like you can find something just about every time.
They like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches too. I caught 3 with pb&j sandwich, apple slice, and mulberries. This 4th one hasn't taken anything yet, so I'm pre-baiting with different things to see what this one likes. So far no luck with cantaloupe, pumpkin seeds, and the pb&j, mulberries, and apples. I'm going to try corn on the cob and I'll try green beans, lettuce, and cabbage too. I feel like Bill Murray in Caddyshack with this last one, the first 3 were caught within an hour of setting the trap out, no pre-baiting necessary. I'm going to get him though. I've filled all his holes but one with gravel and bricks, but they can dig pretty fast. I watched one dig a hole under my fence in less than 5 minutes.
Do you have a video that shows you how to check to see if the trap is working properly. I sprayed WD. Feels like you have to place more pressure on the peddle. Thanks.
