new fox trap

[comanche 3,025]

Eek. A touch of Madame Guillotine!. Always amazes me that they can exhibit such amazing self-preservation and use various physical,mental and sensory ruses to evade capture. Yet on other occasions one comes across them as non-targets sitting in a resigned manner in the flimsiest of home-built Larsens or unable to find the way out of a chicken run they've broken into .

another thing i may had is that anyone can catch a town fox,but for the wild ones i would make sure the wire at bottom of trap iscoverd.it does make a difference .ive had sone set for weeks without nothing,,, then after the first i often get others..... i speed it up a bit with some gland lure and urine but even then.. i think why spend all thiss time and efort when a simple snare will do. iffox you after cant beat a simple snare set on oppen run

hello pal iv trapped foxes for a few year now and been very sucsessful i use full frozen (bait lasts longer frozen) pheasents,rabbits or chickens when i set my traps i will put 3 bits of bait in one in the back one in the middle and one just outside the trap this method has never failed for me the very first time i set a trap this way i had a fox in after only 3 days of it being set. i dont bother covering my traps with anyhting but i do chain them up to a fence post or a tree as iv had a couple stolen in the past iv also had people setting them off and taking the bait and also people damaging them so if i see that anyones bothered it i always move it to another location. hope iv been of help to you good luck.
