Apple Corn Wildlife Block

Apple Corn Wildlife Block

Want to bring the deer in your area in front of your game camera more frequently? Give them an incentive to visit often. Check out the Wildlife Apple Corn block that I picked up today at a local feed store. It is 25 pounds, and is packed with minerals, corn, and molasses flavor. I placed one of these blocks out last year, and the deer totally destroyed it. It did last for several weeks though, so I think that it is a much more economical choice than just regular old corn.
I picked this block up for $8.50, and I also grabbed a couple of 50 pound bags of corn for $7.50 each. The deer definitely love the corn too, but so do the squirrels. I tend to pick up a lot of daytime pictures and videos of squirrels, and I'm hoping that the apple corn block won't be as big of a draw for them.
I dropped this block in front of my Scoutguard SG550 that is located behind my home. I just set it tonight, so it may take a day or two for the deer to get on it. I have a ton of deer running these wood lots behind my home. I should hopefully have some good pictures to be posting soon. I've marked my calendar, and will give you an update on how long this block lasts.
Have you tried these blocks out before? I'd love to hear what you think of them. I think I'll be heading back to the feed store to pick up a couple more.
