Yes I have tried it and it did not work for me. Very poor job of coating the trap with wax. There is water on the trap as you pull it through the wax on top and because wax and water do not mix, it results in a poor job.
I use candle wax and melt it in a bucket. I lower a small bundle of traps into the wax and wait until the traps are the same temperature. Then I pull them out,shake a little, and let dry.
