Depending on your terrain and your snare site. I’d use my bait by placing it where I can play the wind and cover the most area. Ie top of a creek That way the smell will work with the thermals I have also used a post hole digger and put a 8” hole about a 2’ deep. Poured the pail into it and let it work. Use the pail for fleshing waste and dump it in the area for the birds to call the coyotes into the area. Meanwhile the brew is stinking up the area pulling in the Yotes without giving the birds anything to investigate. I’ve set up cameras year round on the brew holes and have had bears (which make the game trails for) wolves, coyotes, lynx and marten come check them out.
