On a new site, start out with white salt and trace, when they get used to it, add di-cal. They don’t like the taste of it right off the bat.

What kind do y’all usually use?
I use (2) 50lb bag of trace minerals and (1) 50lb bag of DiCalcium Phosphate. That 150lbs mixed together is enough to do 2 mineral sites. This ^^^^^^^

I get them started coming to a spot with that Deer Co Caine stuff. They absolutely love it. It is not too expensive either. I also find it funny that they used to call it Deer Cocaine but had to change the name for whatever legal reason. I think this year I’m going to try something with more of the minerals they need and not just like and see if there is a difference. I’ll start reading labels and ingredients more closely.
Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

Yes, throwing out a block is a lot easier, but it is also expensive and mostly salt. You can use a bag of general purpose livestock minerals that has dicalcium phosphate in it and trace mineral salt from tractor supply at $19.99 and $7.99 respectively both in 50 lb. bags and mix your own. I will also throw in a tub of grape kool aid or buy a bag of dry molasses from Am@#$% and mix that in with it. The formula should be 2 parts minerals to 1 part salt and 1 part molasses. I don't usually put these out until the end of Feb. or early March if I am just starting a site, but I will also update it about four times a year. I know some may only update it three times each year, everyone has their own way of doing things.

Got about a dozen bags of pool salt from my neighbor that I’ll use to freshen ours at the lease up this weekend.
