Default TRAIL CAM PROBLEMS

well, my problem is the bears won't leave them alone! i've used all kinds of scent killers and they still love to swat the cams around. got some good pics because of it. but, last week the bear put a whole in my infrared lens cover.(that suck) the cam still works but, i'm wondering how you guys stop the bears? or if anyone else has this problem?

is it by a feeder or pile of corn? get rid of the feeder. that's what I had to do. the bears are costing me way too much money. they broke my feeder 2 years in a row.

If you need a quick fix, buy a sheet of tin and make a box with exposed sharp edges...they will still mess with it....but if you make it right they won't get it and eventually leave it alone. or just spend alittle money and buy a box for it

If it is by a bait pile you will have to get rid of the bait until the bears go away.
