RE: Minerals
You can also just get a salt block from the local farm store and stick it on a stump. It will soak in and also get rid of your stumb for ya. We put a used salt block that was in the steer pen and took it out to the woods to get rid of it, since the steers were gone. I put a little block on the same stump once a year. Everytime I go out there, there is fresh tracks all around the stump.
I have tried the powder stuff that they have for deer at the sporting goods store and they never touch it
