Yancy, I have read and followed your cages trapping tips, no takers yet.
Right now I am set up in an old barn with lots of cat sign, they are using it as a toliet. I'll explain my setup then everyone can offer thier opinions, suggestions. I'll keep all posted as to my results.
I set the cage against the wall, not right in the corner, with the most sign, covered the bottom wire and pan/trigger with the duff/litter/dirt in the barn. In the back of the cage I placed a chicken bone (just had one to get rid of)and some fresh cat poo that was right there. I hung two twigs from the top, one was dipped in gland the other in a commercial lure. Gave the set a shot of cat pee for good measure. Anyone think I over did the smells? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
I covered the back top and sides of the cage with available boards. The coverings are not solid with the exception of the back side. They also do no reach all the way to the open end of the cage. Is this a problem? The trap has been in place for four days, no takers. I however do no see any fresh cat tracks either. I will try to get some picts to post.
Looking for anyone and everyones insight here!
