I have a question for you experienced trappers. I have been trapping for about a year now, with somewhere close to 25 caught/spayed/neutered so far. I am asking for others to tell me how they do it. I mean what time of day do you find you are the most successful? Where do you set your traps? Do you cover them? How much food do you use? Any and all info is helpful.
Barbara and I set 10 traps last night and caught 2 adult males, 1 male kitten, 1 male already fixed and 2 mongoose. I know that 3 is still way better than none, but I would like to try and have 10 out of 10 traps filled. If I have all fixed cats, then ok (because that means that I don't have anymore I need to catch and fix, right?), but I want to up my success rate.
Thanks for any advice. I am going to be trying for another momma and kittens next week, so hoping to get them asap!
