Has anyone used a "Hold a Hog" snare?

I've seen them and don't know anyone personally that's used one but a friend did tell me he heard they suck. Don't know why so I'm Prob not much help

I'm interested in this as well. We have a pork problem on our lease. I have access to a trap so maybe I'll just try that first

The hog commander traps are awesome I've got 3 and never had one fail

Which company is local.... You mean local to Baton Rouge or Louisiana?

If you want to catch hogs make sure you dont set that trap for quite a while get every hog in the area used to eating in it like it was there for them. If you set it as soon as you put it out, You will catch a few and never again even if you move it. They are smart.

never used that kind of trap


We have had very good luck with the traps they sell at Tractor Supply. They are easy to move around.

Which trap specifically at Tractor Supply?

From Hog Commander website.


Hog Commander strongly recommends you use a deer repellent around your trap set area and mix thoroughly with your bait pile. Deer repellents are available at most all feed stores, co-ops, lawn and garden centers and hardware stores. Repellents come in both granular and liquid form. A $10 container should last you a season if applied as directed. If using granular repellent, spread 1/2 cup around your trap set area and mix 1 cup with your bait pile. If using liquid form, spray liberally around your trap set area and mix into your bait pile. Re-apply to area after a rain or as needed.

Most repellents are composed primarily of eggs or meat meal, blood meal and bone meal. It repels deer from the area but acts as a very strong attractant to omnivorous hogs. USE DEER REPELLENT!!!
