Oh, we've got MORE than our share of coyotes. I'm in Orange County, CA and
for people with more conventional pets, (dogs & cats) the coyotes are a much
bigger problem than raccoons.
Night 2 without a visit...hope I can keep saying that!

For $16 you should have gotten the whole coyote! It is supposed to
work if there are coyotes in your area. The coon may just think it is
cheap cologne if it does not recognize it as a predator. I looked out
this morning to one furry bandit in a Hav-a-heart. I think I'll take
the little guy to the park today. Good luck with yours. I hope I
only have one.

I know some of you will think I'm just kidding due to my recent
run-ins with
the raccoon but this is serious - no kidding.
Yesterday I was at Petco and was talking to the guy in the fish
department
and I mentioned I had a pond. He tells me that he used to but gave
it up due
to being constantly trashed by the raccoons. So I mentioned to him
that I
had 4 visits from coons in the last week and I was thinking of
trading in
the goldfish and koi for 200 4" piranhas to remedy the problem. (OK
I can't
help it - just kidding about that part).
So he tells me I should get some coyote urine...that if it was
available
when he had the problem, he's probably still have his pond. For a
second I
thought HE was kidding and I said, "You said coyote urine?" He said
that
they sell it across the street at Green Thumb Nursery. So I went
over there
and bought an 8 oz bottle plus a couple of dispensers. Last night
was the
first time I used it and didn't have a visit - coincidence? I don't
know but
I had to try it even if it was $16.
Anybody else hear of it? And it IS actual 100% pure coyote urine,
not some
chemical (according to them). I'll take their word for it.
