Trap wax
« on: December 12, 2019, 07:10:28 PM »
So who uses what for trap wax? I was thinking about putting some on the pan hinge, door glides, and sear for my bobcat traps. They were a bit stiff today but not frozen. Had a rabbit hop into my cage and not trigger it though.
May my presence go unnoticed, may my shot be true, may the blood trail be short.

Amen

Spray mine with vegetable oil.

Skip the wax and just use Vaseline on your slide rails and hinge points
