Baiting Traps

I'm having a Raccoon problem and I have some traps. What will work best to attract them? I was told peanut butter?

 

i caught one with a wet can of cat food

 

Thats an idea

 

Jelly, and twinkies have worked well for me

 

any kind of smelly food, and build something so that they will "funnel" to the food. remember, they will take the easiest route to get to food. trap how you want, im not gonna get into it bc there are so many ways...humane, and not.

 

its so smelly it attracts them and I found it on some forum awhile back on some trapper or some crap forum

 

trapper john?

 

My buddy who's a pest control guy lent me two small metal traps. I caught one quite awhile ago and ended up taking it up into the forest about 15 miles from my home and let it go

 

WTF .............so they have a sweet tooth huh?

 

no I dont think so

 

It sounded wierd to me at first too until I tried it. I have trapped alot of coons with those two items

 

Looks like I need to drop buy 7/11

 

Pick up some anise extract from the grocery store and put a few drops of that on your bait too

 

"anise extract"

 

McCormick anise extract it has a strong licorice smell
