I live in the Midwest and we have been seeing an increase in the coyote population in our area for the past couple years. Recently we have had some attacks on local livestock and pets. I had a dog that was attacked the other day and I had to put her down. I'm not a hunter and don't want to be but the wildlife protection people don't seem to be able to keep up with the problem. Does anyone know of ways to distract coyotes away from your property?
