the nature boy Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 I bought a cabin in the woods north of Park Rapids this summer and just started putting out feeders. It's kind of a pain since I only go up there a couple times a month but it has been worth it. I looked out the window the other day when I was up there and there he was. Luckily, my camera was on the table right next to me. I do love these magnificent woodpeckers. eyeguy 54 and DonBo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delcecchi Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Cool. I've been putting out suet cakes to attract the pilleateds that allegedly are in the area. No luck yet, although the feeders didn't get refilled whilst I was up north. But I'm back and hopeful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the nature boy Posted September 15, 2016 Author Share Posted September 15, 2016 I have a suet feeder on the other side of the cabin but he didn't find that. I guess he just wanted a few seeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawg Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Mine has been getting attacked nightly by raccoons! I have 3 of the fattest little buggers you ever seen. Maybe if they keep eating that fat they will stroke out leech~~ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delcecchi Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Whatever you do, don't mix golden malrin fly bait with coke and put in a dish up in a tree. It would be illegal to kill raccoons that way. ANYFISH2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebelSS Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Use a baited Bridger at tree base. That'll work. If not, anything else goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawg Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 We used that Golden Marin and coke at our hunting camp for skunks and a friend is a greens keeper at a big golf coarse here. It's amazing, they don't even take a step, they die immediately. I've been told cats,dogs, deer, and most big animals won't touch it but not sure if that's true or not though.

delcecchi Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I would put it up in a tree if I were to do something like that, just in case. I also have heard dogs aren't interested, but I don't trust the dogs to do what they are supposed to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawg Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 I think it's way to nasty to use in town anyway. Besides I don't want to deal with a dead skunk on the ground if one comes along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
