Hello there. Looking for advice and/or support on trapping/hunting coyotes. They have been terrorizing my chickens and ducks for the past few months and lately have been attacking during the day about once a day.
I had a local animal/pest control company who does larger animals come out and survey- they wanted $700 for one week of trapping with no guarantee of capture. They recommended posting on Facebook or a forum to see if someone would want to do it for free or for the land access - I’m on about 40 acres of nicely wooded private land.
I’m open to trying to take care of it myself as well, but don’t really know the first place to start… I should probably note at some point that I’m a woman, and don’t have a lot of experience hunting/trapping… suggestions and resources welcome!

That’s actually not a bad price for time equipment supplies
If you’re into DYI then watch YouTube videos and you’ll get the gist of how to trap
When I need expert advice I tend to talk to myself
The older I get the better I used to be

Watch Casey Shoopman's videos on The Management Advantage Youtube channel.
"Cull" is just another four letter word...

check with your local conservation office. one of the guys in our area came out and set four traps for me when I wasn't able to connect with any coyote after unsuccessful attempts. i learned what i was doing wrong.

Google your local trappers association, you may find someone willing to trap. I don't know if live market trapping is allowed in Georgia or not, if so someone may be interested in catching them. The fur markets are in the gutter now and a lot of folks have quit trapping.
