Coon Problem fix

[SaltwaterSlick]

If you are diligent in putting it out, it works! It has a kind of fruity smell that coons love. I learned from others here that you can take little brown paper bags like you take a lunch to school or work in, and fill them up. Staple them to trees up off the ground a bit. The coons will think they are stealing something and attack the bags... Also have a couple bait stations out with 5 gallon buckets screwed to big limbs on trees... fill the bucket, put the lid securely on, then cut a hole in the bottom side of the bucket so the coons will have to dig the pellets out ... we went from 10 to 15 coons at once on trail cam pics at every feeder to 1 to 2 coons in all feeders total in about 3 to 4 weeks...

Horrible way to die. Coon or not.

I just shoot them. Much more fun and another hunt. I agree with cuz. Got to be painfull and nasty way out. Dont think any animal should have to suffer.

Plus I think 22 ammo is cheaper. Bound to know some kids that would love to learn how to coon hunt.

I'm with you. Just go over there at night and shoot them with 22 or shot gun. Deer will come back.

With 25 feed stations shooting them is not an option...

Sure it is. Maybe not all at one night. Teach some kids how to hunt. Buy a couple traps. I would rather buy corn then monkey food. To each there own.

or have a tbh coonhunt. Lots of folks dont have a place to hunt anything and would jump on the oppertunity for a free hunt and make new friends.

Jason (SMART) talked about this. It's on my list to go get from the feed store here in the next week or so. They have to order it for me though.

For the record I have not used monkey chow....and I don't remember suggesting it.... I suggested better cages or trapping w/ banana moon pies.... That being said if monkey chow saved my 1200 lbs of corn a month, I wouldn't hesitate to use it.

When you live 4-5 hours away it is not feasible to hunt all the leases feed pens/stations
