Raccoons

Fish oils and cultured egg bases are raccoon magnets. Adding smoke oil (just a few drops per pint of ground fish or egg mash) cuts through foliage and attracts raccoons from a wide radius. This smoky-fish combination consistently outperforms straight fish bait in early and mid-season trapping. Anchor your oil or egg paste to a natural visual—even a tuft of sheep’s wool—near the trap entrance for maximum hold time.
