Put out a gallon of Deer Cane by one of my active feeders thinking they would like the minerals. That camera has gone from getting 8 to 12 deer a night to nothing. Some people say it has to soak in before it gets going and we have had very little rain, so maybe that's it. But they are definitely gone for now.

We use the powder. Just pour it on top of the ground and walk away. They wear ours out.

I had the kind you mix in a 5 gallon bucket of water. They didn't touch it for a year. The next spring the started a small hole, that was 4 years ago and 4 bags of cane later they have a hole the size of a car hood and 10-12 in deep.

It's just a little coincidental that spot went from 8-12 a night to 0 on the day I put out the Cane.

My experience is deer hit the minerals harder from spring through summer but taper off this time of the year.
Anything worth doing, is worth doing right, or it's not worth doing at all!

The deer at our camp are hitting the pool salt we bought at Sam's a bunch. We get pics with them standing in it. We also have pics of turkey, coons and rabbits in it.
