A properly made dirt hole set can catch every canine that passes, but the secret is learning how to make a good one. </p> <p>The first step is to put your set location in an area inhabited by fox or coyote. In wooded areas, look for your set location near trails that cross. In farm country, locate where fence rows meet, near rock piles and old farms. Anywhere mice and other rodents are abundant or an open area is nearby will work also. The set location should be in an area that's open at least 20 or 30 yards in all directions and relatively flat. Gray fox don't mind sets in thickets, but red fox and coyote are too suspicious if set is not in the open.</p> <p>Clean equipment is a necessity. At a very minimum, clean traps and equipment free of factory oil, rust and dirt. Preferably, dye and wax your traps and understand it's best to get your traps out before the deep freezes and heavy snows. <a href="features/features_029_dirt_hole_set.html">Click here to read the article.<br> </a><img border="0" src="images/1px_black_line_468_x_10.gif" width="468" height="10"><br> <img border="0" src="images/title_bar_feature_article.jpg" width="468" height="20"></p> <p><b>Opossums are people too<br> </b><font size="1">By Ron Baker*</font> </p> <p> Opossums are, in my opinion, the easiest animals to trap, they are fairly slow and if you approach them quickly, they play dead. This is an amazing reaction to fear. Instinctively they understand that most predators will only eat live animals. When opossums feel threatened, they will fall over, their eyes will gloss over and they produce an odor from their mouths that smells like a decaying carcass. This is a very effective self preservation tactic that works well in the wild, however, Trapper Ron is never fooled. Playing <a href="https://casinotructuyenonline.com/">game casino tr�c tuy�n</a> can be a relaxing way to unwind while in the wild, offering a convenient and entertaining escape from the day s adventures. Whether camping or hiking, these games provide a fun distraction, allowing you to enjoy the thrill of gaming amidst nature s tranquility. </p> <p>Sometimes the situation calls for a caring touch as in the case of one call I received. Not only for the animals but for the people that fear them. I was in between calls when I received a frantic call from a woman who said that there was an animal in her bath tub. She had no idea what it was other than it was white and looked like a large rat. I assumed it to be an opossum. She told me that price was not an option and that I needed to get there right now. I just happened to be in the area so I headed her way. <a href="features/features_028_animal_control_002.html">Click here to read the article. </a> </p> </td> <center> <td valign="middle" align="center" width="6" bordercolor="#000000" rowspan="2"> <p>&nbsp;</p> </td> <td valign="top" align="center" width="140" bgcolor="#FFFF66" bordercolor="#000000" class="SLO-SideLinks" rowspan="2"> </center> <!--webbot bot="Include" U-Include="includes/right_sidebar.htm" TAG="BODY" startspan --> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="140" class="SLO-SideLinks"> <tr> <td valign="top" align="center" width="140"> &nbsp; <table border="1" width="127" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" class="SLO-SideLinks" bordercolor="#C0C0C0"> <tr> <td valign="top" align="center" bgcolor="#FF0000"><font color="#FFFFFF"><b>Trapping Supplies</b></font></td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" align="center"> <iframe src="files/PXRS_ext_iframe_html_7jzjyknzojivx4z2hkyvwn.html" style="width:120px;height:240px;" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0"></iframe> <br> <iframe src="files/_ifr_ext_iframe_html_3mj3qi4peec4mozsngiqjo.html" style="width:120px;height:240px;" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0"></iframe> </td> </tr> </table> <p align="center"> <p align="center">&nbsp; </td> </tr> </table> <!--webbot bot="Include" endspan i-checksum="19633" --> </td> </tr> <center> <tr> <td valign="middle" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" bordercolor="#000000" class="SLO-MainBodyText" align="center" height="2"><img border="0" src="images/1px_black_line_468_x_10.gif" width="468" height="10"> </td> </tr> </table> </center> </div> <div align="center"> <center> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="760" height="60"> <tr> <td width="140" valign="middle" align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" class="SLO-SideLinks"><!--webbot bot="Include" U-Include="includes/bottom_left_140_x_60.htm" TAG="BODY" startspan --> <table border="0" width="140" class="SLO-Footer" height="60" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="140" height="60" valign="middle" align="center" class="SLO-Footer"> <p align="center"> </td> </tr> </table> <!--webbot bot="Include" endspan i-checksum="60468" --> </td> <td width="6" valign="middle" align="center"></td> <td width="468" valign="middle" align="center" class="SLO-Footer"> <!--webbot bot="Include" U-Include="includes/bottom_center.htm" TAG="BODY" startspan --> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="468" height="60"> <tr> <td valign="middle" align="center" class="SLO-Footer" width="468" height="60"> <p> Copyright `2000-2013 <a href="http://www.maluminternet.com/" target="_blank"> Malum Internet Properties</a>.&nbsp; All rights reserved.<br> All other trademarks and copyrights are the property of their respective holders.<br> <a href="legal/privacy.html">Privacy Statement</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <a href="legal/copyright.html">Copyright Notice and Terms of Use</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <a href="legal/about.html">About Us / Contact Info</a> </p> </td> </tr> </table> <!--webbot bot="Include" endspan i-checksum="15530" --> </td> <td width="6" valign="middle" align="center"></td> <td width="140" valign="middle" align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" class="SLO-Footer"><!--webbot bot="Include" U-Include="includes/bottom_right_140_x_60.htm" TAG="BODY" startspan --> <table border="0" width="140" class="SLO-Footer" height="60" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="140" height="60" valign="middle" align="center" class="SLO-Footer"> <!-- Site Meter --> <script type="text/javascript" src="js/counter.js"> </script> <noscript> <a href="http://s13.sitemeter.com/stats.asp?site=s13slowat" target="_blank"> <img src="meter.asp_site_s13slowat.jpg" alt="Site Meter" border="0"/></a> </noscript> <!-- Copyright (c)2009 Site Meter --> </td> </tr> </table> <!--webbot bot="Include" endspan i-checksum="18351" --> </td> </tr> </table> </center> </div> </body> </html>
