For the people buying bread this time of the year, how do you keep it from going moldy?

Try to keep it cool and covered. It keeps a lot longer than you would think. The bears don't mind a little mold. Heck they'll scarff down carrion without a care in the world. Pour some grease on that stuff and get it'll play.
I've had bread for my goats for over a month that is still bascially mold free. Some has hardened up a bit. It's outside under a tarp

I have 5 industrial drum liners filled now. Largely from goodwill and value village hot air poppers but I own a heavy theater kettle type that made 20kg worth.

I have 13 bags of bread available. I won't stock up till it's gone. 26 gone so far. Proud of my kids for working so hard at this.
If anyone goes into Dollarama please check for those suction style water guns. They are great for "grease distribution". If they are available just post where....

I'm catching beavers and have some on hand right now. I don't have a lot of freezer space so I'd like to fill orders as I catch them (ie. First come first served). I plan on catching a couple of dozen but I'll trap more if there is more demand.
Skinned, no tails attached and some may not have a head......$20 per.

I have alot of anise extract. 2 years in the making! Mix the extract 1 part extract 5 parts veg oil, toss in a pesticide sprayer and cover your hunting area. You'll have black licorice smell for miles. I do this every year and have yet to wait longer than 2 days for bears to hit the station.
Selling 1 gallon of extract for 60$. That's 100% anise extract. Any other bait you buy with anise smell is 3-5%. This stuff is potent!
Located in St Albert, ab. Shipping at buyers dime.

Buckets
Does anyone have any tips on where to get buckets free or cheap for hauling fry oil? $10 bucks a pop at Home Depot for the pour spout lids buckets seems a bit pricey.

I always just watched the ditches when driving on the highway. Lots in the ditch for some reason or another. Even new construction areas usually have tons of old five gal pails of misc Construction product.

Sold out for now. PM for advanced orders. Thanks AO.
The kids are pumped. We've made them deal with the customers directly (when they are home) and it's been a great learning experience for them

If you don't have a free supply of something. Cheapest way to bait I found.
Oats at UFA or any feed store at $12 per bag. You only need one bag in a barrel. You're not feeding the bears you're baiting them. If they get to much they don't show up regular like.
Fry grease from any restaurant will do (use a lot).
Pails are $5 per at Canadian Tire way cheaper than Home Depot.
Anise from Safeway mixed with water. I use 10-20% of that 50ml bottle per litre and it works great.
Aunt Jamima maple flavoured corn syrup mixed with water as well.
If you have freezer space and you go fishing you should save those guts, skins and heads for your spring baiting as well. You're fishing anyways.
