Did anyone compare without/with lure? I am thinking not to use the chemical lure but don't know how much less effective it will be.

I have tried both ways with not much difference. I got primarily for pantry moths and mosquitos the dogs let in the house through dog door. Seems to work well regardless.

Very effective with the lure and pretty darn good without the lure. Will work either way. I think it draws in the pesky nats that get in our wine glass better with the lure.

Have used in saltwater but with lighter lures. Most of my use has been freshwater for muskellunge. Deals with 20 to 30 lb fish effectively. My lure of choice is virtually always on the lighter side and does not include the traditional large Muskie baits.

That would work and poison bait is what I used to use. Switched to traps because of the high cost of the bait and that I didn't like the idea of the dead ones laying around. Were I used to have hundreds of squirrels 2 years ago I now only occasionally have one. The breeders are gone

We've had lots of yellow jackets this year and much earlier than usual. I bought this double chamber one from Amazon and had a smaller single chamber (model YJTR-SF4) that I bought from Home Depot last year. For some reason, the yellow jackets like the HD trap better. Maybe it's easier to crawl into or something. I've emptied it twice already. I've even swapped locations, doesn't matter - more go into the SF4 model whereever I place it. I replaced the lure with 10 week lure and it's really bringing them in.

Really, about anything that will release a big scent trail. As long as it can fit in the bait bag, you're fine! I prefer to use the remainders of fish, such as the heads. If that isn't available, go for chicken necks. Chicken necks are mainly for trotlines, but hell they sure they smell. Have fun, and good fishing to you.

My experience is that you need the attractant. I like this product because it is much cleaner than other flytraps.

Seems to work OK...I keep mine under cover so it does not get Wet... Don't know about HIGH HEAT. Rats are more Weary about NEW things... Mine catches Mice fine... But still waiting for a Rat.... I have tried Peanut Butter and Dog Food... Thinking about Bacon....Of course I also have to Contend with Ants going for the Bait also on Any NON_WINTER time. Not fun!

I don't order the replacement lures specifically for the superior Tanglefoot traps, but rather buy them at home improvement stores like Lowes or even at Wal Mart. I get the refill lures for the Spectracide "Bag a Bug" beetle trap instead as they're cheaper and they also fit the Tanglefoot traps. Tanglefoot lures say they use multiple attractants, but I find that the single attractant in the Spectracide refills works just fine. Consider buying the lures in the Fall when they are on clearance, and use them the following season.

Bait is sold separately so shop it on your own. I had trouble with this seller as well so I would avoid ePestsolutions.

It is bait free but DO NOT BUY this because (when I used 2 of them) the rats/mice DID NOT GO INSIDE and eat the bait (it was untouched.) I then wired the bait outside near where the bait stations were located & the rats/mice ate it and died. Also, when the bait stations were delivered most of the rods were not included and had to go through hell with the seller to have them sent to me. Just get "One Bite" rat poison that comes in rods w/ holes through the middle and use thin wire to tie them down and the rats eat it and die.

Hi Diane, did you use any sort of bait to lure it or did it just find its way in there?

Any should work, but other baits are possible. Have they already caught mice? If so you may need to boil them to get rid of the scent.

yes ! although I have not as of yet attempted to shoot the Broadheads ( expensive) so I am or cannot give you a full response to their effectiveness honestly. I primarily use the target points, just for that exercise, and have not even mounted the broadheads on my bow. I am moving into the bow fishing now, so I will need some input on that process one day myself. I have seen that bow fishing when possible, it is regulated in many states, is fun and produces great results.

Donna, I have recently had great success with a product called the "Victor Fly Magnet." I have trapped and killed 100's, maybe even 1000's of flies with this thing. It's non poisonous. It worked so well for me that I purchased 2 more. It's made a huge difference on my deck.Victor M380 Fly Magnet 1-Quart Reusable Trap With Bait

Sorry, I cannot help you. I have never used these lures in deep salt water. I have only used them in brackish (sp?) water and I have never caught anything on them. So sorry. . .. . .

I would say that the attractant is critical. These things REALLY work. They smell bad, so do not place near your house, entryways, or patios. But, you'll catch hundreds of flies per day!

I use 1 1/2oz for shore fishing with the med tip and have had no problems. the med. light I use 3/4 lures off a boat and it works fine.
