A corn site draws the deer already passing through. Molasses brings them from further out.
One gallon jug, to pour over your corn or straight onto the ground.
Why molasses works
The sweet scent carries, and it carries fast. Poured over corn, molasses sticks to the grain and holds deer on the site longer. Poured onto a stump or a fallen log, it marks the spot and draws game from further out than grain alone.
How to use
- Pour over your corn and stir — the grain takes a coating and the scent holds better than on bare ground.
- Or pour straight onto a stump, a fallen log or a rock, at muzzle height.
- Molasses is water-soluble. After heavy rain, put more down.
- One jug covers several applications on the same site. Start generously, then maintain.
- Store the jug where it won’t freeze.

Complete your salt lick
Open since 1928. We know this ground.
F.G. Edwards is a farm and agricultural store in Brome-Missisquoi. We opened in 1928 and we have served the rural community here for nearly a hundred years: farms, woodlot owners, country people — and hunters. Two stores today, West Brome and Bedford.
FRED'S 1928 came from a simple observation. Hunters here had been buying the same corn as our farmers for years, in the same 25 kg sack, with nothing on the sack to say so. We put a name on it, then filled the gaps: a molasses, a sulphur, a flavoured salt.
What that changes for you: farm sizes at farm prices, stock that lasts to the end of November, and two yards where we help you load. Whether you're building a first site or running six, come and see us.
