My nephew just bought a house in a fairly rural suburb. His property
has a cemetery on one side and wooded property an two sides. He's
worried about all the coyotes he hears and sees around, he has two dogs,
one small and two little girls. He asked me if a good pellet gun would
discourage them from around his property. I suggested a wrist rocket if
the city didn't allow pellet guns. Might there be a chemical repellant
available? Or, some better way to handle this? How about ****ing on
the property lines?

Peeing on the property lines just says "I was here", not "I'm rougher &
tougher than you".

Dunno the right answer, although I suspect a fence around the back yard
would slow them down considerably, as well as keeping dogs & children out
of what they think of as their territory.

Why not a real gun? Is there anywhere that a coyote is considered
protected?
