Proper baiting techniques are very important for trapping that target animal, and our Bait Sticks & Paste Baits make it easy!! Our paste baits are very effective year round because of their thickness. They hold up during extreme weather conditions. The baits are sold in 6 oz sizes, which are good for 15 to 20 settings. For optimal baiting, dip a bait stick into the proper paste bait, and hang the bait stick at the back of the trap, so that it dangles at eye level behind the trip pan. The animal will enter the trap, see and smell the bait stick, and step on the trip pan as it investigates the bait stick.
