Antler King Buck Brick

The longevity of the brick depends heavily on the size of your local deer herd and the amount of rainfall in your area. Generally, you can expect it to last anywhere from two to four weeks, though high-traffic areas may see it consumed faster.

While it can be used year-round, it is most effective during the spring and summer months when deer are actively growing antlers and need the highest concentration of minerals. It is also a useful attractant during the early fall season.

No, you do not need to bury it. Simply place the brick directly on the ground in an area with good drainage, such as an established mineral lick or a well-traveled game trail. Placing it on a slight mound or a patch of bare dirt helps prevent it from dissolving too quickly in standing water.

Yes, because the block contains minerals and nutrients that are appealing to many animals, you may see other wildlife like squirrels, raccoons, or bears visiting the site. If you want to minimize non-target visitors, consider placing the brick in areas where deer activity is most concentrated.

Clearing away leaves, grass, and debris from a small area before placing the brick is recommended. This helps the minerals soak into the soil as the brick dissolves, creating a long-lasting mineral site that deer will continue to visit even after the brick itself is gone.
