How to keep raccoons away from my bait??

[skypilot]

Make a baitsicle from your bait and water in a 1/2 filled 5 gal bucket. Freeze and dump baitsicle.

It can take a couple weeks for yotes to find. Usually they show up after coons, hawks, crows and skunks.

A dead racoon will pretty much stop them for a while and so will a hungry yote.

Shoot 1... Impale it on a stick near the bait to serve as an example to the rest?...

Does this work on WOMEN too???????

Not sure, I have only used it in a rural setting and I am to old to go to the bar and see if they hang out by the bathroom door.

You would be amazed at the animals that check out this scent post. I have pictures of moose, deer, coyotes, racoons, rabbits and squirels checking it out. I have seen pictures from other guys using this and they have wolves and bear checking as well. Here are a few examples of my human scent post. It is a lot easier than carrying pails of bait.
