moodyskydiver 0 #2 December 21, 2005 Ya know they stop yipping when you shoot them... When coyotes make the mistake of coming onto our property the only thing we want them to do is come within firing range. Ofcourse its more of a precaution for our horses and such than because of the noise.But it gets rid of them all the same.Like you said, joys of living in the boonies.*shrug* "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

Amazon 7 #3 December 21, 2005 Its kinda a no fire zone and one of the local detectives is the neighbor right behind me... and the little bastages come thru his pasture where he has horses. I think I need more silent means but I got rid of my compound bow a few years back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

moodyskydiver 0 #5 December 21, 2005 You live in the country but its a no fire zone? WTF?That sucks! I guess I'm just used to the way we do things in TX. As long as its your property and you live outside the city limits its legal to discharge a firearm. Well, good luck with the little bastages.Might I suggest an investment in good earplugs since your area has some idoitic views towards your 2nd amendment rights? "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

McDuck 0 #6 December 21, 2005 There are several less lethal methods for deterring them from being around your property. If you have the means, you can place motion-sensitive lighting on those areas of your property where they enter and exit. Since they tend to shy away from bright lights, that's one way to start shooing them away. In addition to the lights (or instead of them, if you can't provide the lighting option) soak many rags in ammonia and place them along the edges of your property, again, where they enter and exit. Since the ammonia will dissipate rapidly, you'll have to soak them again each day and put them back out. Do these two for a week, consistently, and you may see a decrease in their activity in your area. You can also put a portable radio out where they enter your property and leave it running at night. They aren't fond of that either.Kevin - Sonic Beef #5 - OrFun #28 "I never take myself too seriously, 'cuz everybody know fat birds don't fly." - FLC Online communities: proof that people never mature much past high school.

From what I have seen, most coyotes will hunt / scavange alone. But sometimes they do hunt in packs. If you have a medium to large size dog, it can take one one-on-one, but it probably will not last if a pack teams up. If it's an actual wolf, then that is a different problem all together.#148 Sonic Scrat "Have you ever kissed a rabbit between the eyes?"
