For alternative solvent(s) you may want to check the following discussion: https://www.researchgate.net/post/What_solvents_can_be_used_to_dissolve_PCL_but_not_PMMA
The formic/acetic acid mixture is expected to promote hydrolysis of polycaprolactone (PCL); cf. (e.g.): http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S001430571630831X?via%3Dihub
you can dissolve it in any acidic media, even only acetic acid can dissolve it after 5-6 hour stirring at room temperature, if you increase the temperature it will reduce your stirring time.
