peanut butter seems to work pretty good also.

dog food
is your patch is small enough to enclose it with an electric fence? if so you need strands, one at 6" and a second at 1'

Buddy of mine uses live traps and dog food. Works like a charm.

watermelons are their favorite food.
Oh wait a minute your talking about the furry four legged varmits, not the african models.

Either make them get a job or start paying child support....you should never see them again.

A guy I help pick sweet corn for uses Fly bait, cat food and coke mixed together, kills them almost on the spot, I have yet to see one get more than 10yrds from the pan.
