Key takeaways
- Bring small pets in before dusk
- Secure coops with strong wire and a roof
- Do not leave pet food or trash outside
- A dig guard at the fence base helps
Coyotes and foxes are clever and persistent, and a loose latch is an invitation.
Pets
Keep small dogs and cats indoors at dawn, dusk and night. Supervise yard time and use a leash after dark.
Coops and hutches
Use sturdy wire, not chicken wire alone, a solid roof and a latch that a raccoon cannot open. Bury or fold wire out along the base so animals cannot dig under.
Remove the draw
Pet food, open trash and fallen fruit bring wildlife close.
