Coyote Trapping & Control – Atlanta, GA

---

Are coyotes threatening your pets or livestock? Atlanta Wildlife Solutions, LLC offers professional coyote trapping and removal services across Metro Atlanta. With over two decades of experience, we specialize in humane, effective, and legal control of nuisance coyotes.

Why Are Coyotes a Problem in Atlanta?

Coyotes have adapted well to suburban and urban environments. They roam neighborhoods, golf courses, farms, and even downtown areas. Though naturally shy, they can become bold when food sources are abundant or if they’ve lost fear of humans.

Common Coyote Problems:

• Killing pets such as cats, small dogs, chickens, and goats
• Stalking children or acting aggressively
• Raiding garbage or compost piles
• Digging under fences and denning in crawlspaces or brush piles
• Spreading parasites like mange and ticks

Our Coyote Trapping Process

We use targeted trapping techniques that comply with Georgia wildlife regulations. Traps are set in high-traffic areas using professional-grade equipment and proven attractants. Once captured, coyotes are safely removed in accordance with state law.

What to Expect:

• On-site inspection to identify trails, scat, or dens
• Custom trap placement to ensure maximum success
• Daily monitoring to reduce stress on captured animals
• Long-term strategies to prevent re-infestation

Coyote Biology & Behavior

Understanding coyote behavior helps us trap them efficiently:

• Size: 25–45 lbs
• Diet: Opportunistic—small animals, fruits, garbage
• Habitat: Woodlands, fields, neighborhoods
• Breeding: January to March; litters of 4–7 pups
• Activity: Mostly nocturnal, but often seen during the day in urban areas

How to Keep Coyotes Away

Prevention is key. Here’s how to make your property less attractive:

• Secure trash bins and remove outdoor pet food
• Close off crawlspaces and under-deck areas
• Install fencing at least 6 ft high with 12” buried skirt
• Remove brush piles and overgrown areas
• Use motion lights and sound deterrents
• Never intentionally feed coyotes

Why Remove Coyotes?

Coyotes may look like wild dogs, but they can pose serious threats to people, pets, and property. As their numbers grow in metro Atlanta, so do the problems they cause.

Top Reasons to Remove Coyotes:

• Pet Safety: Coyotes will attack and kill small dogs, cats, poultry, and livestock.
• Human Safety: Though rare, coyotes can become aggressive—especially when they lose fear of people or are protecting pups.
• Disease Risk: Coyotes carry parasites like mange, ticks, and fleas, and may spread rabies or distemper.
• Property Damage: They dig dens under sheds, decks, and foundations; raid garbage; and destroy landscaping.
• Population Control: Removing dominant animals helps prevent breeding booms and territorial aggression.
