DON T feed or provide water for coyotes or other wild life. This practice abnormally attracts coyotes and promotes increased numbers of rodents, birds, snakes, and other creatures that can provide major portions of the coyote s natural diet. DON T put trash cans out the night before scheduled pick-up. Put them out in the morning. This will give coyotes less time to scavenge, and they won t have the cover of darkness.
Coyotes are mainly active at night or twilight.
DON T use plastic bags as garbage containers. Coyotes can readily rip them open and scatter the contents. PETS Construct six-foot fences with extenders facing outward at the top of each post. Install two or three stands of wire, extending out at an angle for about 14 inches, completely around fence. This prevent the coyotes from easily climbing.
