Any coyote trappers around Yelm ?
« on: January 14, 2023, 06:16:29 PM »
Don't know if it's a thing around here but I got a lot of yotes cruising my property.  Usually hear them 4-5 nights a week-close.  We live across from a large chicken farm and they come through all the time.  Was able to shoot one today 40 yards from my patio door.

I use to at several farms right by you until they outlawed snares. Never had any luck live trapping them. Send redi on here a message. He’s somewhat local and is a licensed trapper.

I'll just say this. The only way to catch coyotes is with padded footholds requiring a permit. You will not be issued a permit unless you can show actual damage. Cruising the property will get you no permits.

I don't need bait as I hear them about 4 nights per week...I just thought trapping them would be a better option

There’s only one way to effectively manage dogs and that’s trapping right wrong or otherwise

Yeah when they're drinking out of my birdbath in the middle of the day 40 yards from my backdoor that's a problem.  I keep a 223 at the ready.  Wife has shot a couple with a shotgun.  Unfortunately I'm not home a lot to keep an eye on things but this is getting ridiculous

Bait and alarms as KF said will make the difference between hearing them 4 times a week, and having them in your crosshairs 4 times a week.

I'm not putting down the effectiveness of trapping at all, but I can attest that baiting and having motion alarms is ALSO an effective way to manage them.
