I've had a lot of success with the Haveaheart traps catching coons, but now they've "caught on" to the Haveahearts, and I've got to switch things up as I'm still having a lot of coon issues around here. Dog-proof traps have been recommended by a buddy who swears by them, and they seem like a good answer. I've probably got the bait situation figured out (marshmallows and a sweet syrup for scent), but could use some hints for securing them, as it looks like the spikes would pull out, and any tips would be gratefully accepted. I ordered four of the DPs, and need some advise on how to deploy them.

I'm trying to avoid catching the damned cats that hang around, (hence the sweet syrup and not something fishy). Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

You can roll a turd in peanuts, dip it in chocolate, and it still ain't no damn Baby Ruth.
