Went to war with the raccoons when I figured out how much corn they are stealing from the feeder. Buying traps is money well spent!

If they're fastened properly and some pinhead jack*ff doesn't
steal em, you'll have em forever + 2 days

Just think how much feed loss and feeder damage could be
avoided if every Texas hunter would buy a couple of relatively
inexpensive varmint traps and use them regularly.
The wabbits and squirrels and young game birds would thank
you too

Traps are $15-20 nowadays? They could be $100 and they would still be worth every penny..

Traps work for you 24/7 as long as they're set.
They don't get tired and don't need any light to
do their job.
I've got some out now waiting on some varmints to
come along

Traps are a MUST if you have coons.

The wife and I get up and the dogs can’t wait to go check the traps. It’s getting to be quality time with the wife!!!

Love the cuff traps.

The first time you put them out, don't set them, just fill them up with corn for a few days and they won't be trap shy.

I've also found that if they get trap shy, you can repeat the process and they seem to forget about the trap part until it gets 'em!

That is good advise and I will do that. I wasn’t able to catch any this weekend. Hope that will help.
