Blaserman i was talking to an old gentleman and a very good friend of the family and just last week said to try pound or 2 of salt a pound or 2 of sugar and YES ( i thought he was nuts) grape juice powder. He said him and his older son put it out last week and with the dry weather we had with a day of rain the deer had it gone as well as a 1 foot by 2 foot hole right out of the ground so guess what i went and got at the grocery store.
