Chicken_man 1,651 Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Hi all, My mate has been raided by mink, and killed a few chooks. I would think it will come back. I have used mink rafts to catch before, you dont need bait, curiosity lures them in, but you do need calm water for good results, there is none there. What is the best bait to use in traps on land ? If any. Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ukroosterman 548 Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Minks are real trouble they wont just kill one or tow for food they will wipe out a full yard in no time atall. They kill one and move on to the next one right away. seem to kill just for the pleasure of it! Normall they tend to bite at the base of skull for a instant kill 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

paulus 26 Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 just chuck a handful of feathers in and around the trap, curiosity will do the rest Quote Link to post Share on other sites
