This^^...these out catch a live trap all day long... For your numbers, I'd buy at least three. If you see 5 you probably have 20 in the area. We have 32 traps for our lease and keep them thumped back pretty good. Need to get after them again soon.

I run them during the offseason mostly and if there is a feeder I don't plan on hunting that weekend during season, I'll run them on it. It doesn't scare the deer away from the feeder as much as it keeps them on the outskirts of it not wanting to jack with a coon banging the feeder legs. I've not lost any deer that I remember because I set a coon trap but they will feed on the outskirts of the throw. I'm certainly not going to set one at the place I am hunting because they do make some noise....and I don't want to deal with one in the dark before shooting light...plus get scent everywhere
