Yes it's worth trying its always worth trying. I learn more from my skunk days then anything else so get out there and then next year you'll know if it was worth it this time of year or not.

Absolutely, it's worth a try, just make sure the area you plan to drop them in is open. Also 1 or 2 traps is not much of an indicator, can be hit or miss. Example you can have 4 on a string, 30 feet apart, 1 trap may have 200, the one next to it zero, then 5 in another or 50 so just giver er a whirl. I recommend baby sitting them though, at least be in the area, people love to steel or at least lift other people's traps. I never leave mine unattended any more.

Good luck and use good bait !
