Skunk Trapping

[mtbadger]

What is a good bait or lure to use for trapping skunks, without attracting dogs and cats. I am use cage traps and have used eggs and dog food, but can't use dog food as there is a new puppy around. (no chance of containment of the dog)

Thanks

Put some strawberry jelly in the egg shell. or try fruit.(orange peels carrot tops,)

Mashed bananas with Bob J's green Groundhog juice, tops on skunks, not to bad on the Hogs either, but I use an apple instead of the Banana.....B.....

Thank-you gents have been doing ok with eggs but the dog checks the traps everyday. So I have to go reset every evening. The place flooded out pretty bad yesterday so it should be interesting for a few days...
