Yeah i would have to say they work. I hunt in Western IL. and we have 3 salt block holes that all started off as the size of a large block and now there about the size of the bed of my pickup and about 10 inches deep. Try using rock salt it seems to soak in the ground pretty good.

When I used to put out blocks it was 50 lb. trace mineral blocks. In early spring into late summer they would kill the blocks. Right around start of bowhunting they seem to lose interst.
I had only saw one deer hit mineral while I was on stand bowhunting. Otherwise they walk right by. If I were you I would start your site in late Feb. next year. You won't regret it.
