Your Wildlife Professionals, Inc. provides coyote removal services in Virginia.
We will set the most humane traps available for the situation. Local laws vary from town to town. Humane padded foot hold traps or humane foot snare traps are the preferred traps, but not all localities will allow their use in urban environments. Professional grade single door humane live cage traps can be used in urban environments, but do not solve the problem fast. Like cage traps, padded foot hold traps and foot snares do not harm the animal and allow us to remove non-target animals without harming them.

Coyotes pose a mental threat to most people because of their presence on their property. They generally will come close to homes or buildings when other nuisance animals are in large numbers, occasionally looking for poultry and livestock, pet foods or other small domestic animals. Controlling the other nuisance animals around the home or building, securing fences, barns, and buildings, or removing pet food dishes can eliminate most coyote problems. The coyote prefers a vacant woodchuck den as close to his prey or hunting grounds as possible. Old barns, low laying decks, and storage sheds have been used for den sites as well. The coyote is actually beneficial, in that it is hunting the animals that are a nuisance on your property. Simply controlling the coyotes prey species or food source around your home or property will help eliminate the presence of a coyote.

Your Wildlife Professionals, Inc. provides coyote removal, coyote control, and coyote pest control in Virginia.
Coyotes can adapt easily to our environments due to the abundance of food and shelter. Humans provide food sources such as trash cans and pet food bowls that are replenished regularly. Urban landscapes provide a great food supply for coyotes because they attract prey or other wildlife species that coyotes are looking for. Once a coyote has found this prevalent food source it will look for a den site that is relatively close to that food source. Homes or the area around your home can become a den site due to increases in urbanization or land development in coyote inhabited areas, and the steady increase in prey species in these areas does not help. The coyote prefers a vacant woodchuck den as close to his prey or hunting grounds as possible. Old barns, low laying decks, and storage sheds have been used for den sites as well. As long as we continue to urbanize and provide an abundance of food to the coyote they will continue to adapt to human environments and pose a threat to human health.
