Deer Cane/Attractants - Do they work?

Mo Bucks does.

the hogs like it thats for sure

Deer cane never worked for us. We stopped putting stuff like that out to be honest. Maybe the occasional mineral block.

I might try some molasses on a stump this year. I'm sure the hogs will love it.

Peanut butter with the lid nailed to a tree. Cut the bottom off.

Deer caine, c'mere deer, and those types of products are all sodium bicarbonate (baking powder) as the base product. You can do the same buying it yourself and adding flavors and mineral instead of buying the expensive products that catch hunters more than deer. Some are base baking powder and add flavors and other salts. Some are base baking powder and add minerals and other salts. for $20 you can make a 5 gallon bucket of the stuff.

A lot of these are salt based, just get a salt block.

DAmn son, I know an old baw that will haul you a load of rooters for a small fee.

Do you have any recipes?

deer cane works like a champ for us during the spring and summer when the deer are hitting mineral sites. pour it on a flat wet piece of ground and the will eat it down 2 feet deep and 5 feet wide

I've got a deer cocaine site that is 4-5 years old and has to be 6ft wide and a ft deep. Put out a few bags in the spring time and then again in the early fall


Works the best on rotted stumps or when you use the same location a few times

I've also tried the rice bran and jello with mixed results, grape worked the best
