I've been trying to get rid of some problem coons and feral cats. I've caught a few at first, but lately haven't had any luck.
I have been putting my trail camera on the trap so I can see what's going on. I have been getting pics of coons or cats every night for the last week, but nothing will really get in the trap. They may start in at first with the "teaser bait" trying to lead them in, but then they won't commit to go on in to the main bait.
I was using cat food, then switched to tuna to see if that would help, but it hasn't seemed to matter much. They aren't reaching through the side or getting the bait, they'll just eat the "teaser bait" and leave.
I live in town, so I'm limited to live trapping them in a Havahart trap.
Any tips to get them in to it?
