Thread: Possum paste lure recipe or ideas ?

[QUOTE=akaroa1;635787]Im trapping on the ground and setting in the afternoon and clearing in the morning.

But I have now found a number of scientific papers that all seem to indicate that a white plastic lure with a strip on luminescent tape attached is significantly more effective.
So will order some and conduct an un-scientific experiment of my own.
Maybe alternate between flour based and lumo ?

That corflute would deff work - and yes take away or they will destroy.
I presume the lure is kept fresh and not rained out inside the tubes of the coreflut ??

Possums are very inquisitive creatures - the old method of lured flour - was more likely the white of the flour attracting rather than the scent in it :-)
