Doggie ping. Is this good advice? My neighborhood does allow shooting on large plots of property (over 10 acres).
Ping!
Or just shoot the @#$%ing thing with your handgun.
Coyotes (and wolves) increasing their presence in suburban Milwaukee. Does this advice from New Berlin work?
FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.
Bear spray? Thirty foot range.
Depends on the neighborhood. You have to live on 10 acres, or more, in certain designated ag districts to be allowed to hunt varmints with a gun.
Can't tell you how many times I've had one of those on me.
Be prepared to follow through and beat the beastie with a shillehleigh or hickory stick. They’ll run when they see you mean business. He’s a dog killer and will have to be shot.
You could throw a lead ball at them, at 900fps or maybe even faster.
“Try squirting them with hoses....walking sticks”
I’d like to see the mechanics of this.
Also a sock full of nickles works pretty good to. If your wife still uses ammonia to clean, that mixed with water in a squirt gun will make any animal run away from you. I know this works from experience. My brother and I use to deliver newspapers and we needed something to scare away dogs that bothered us. It was my mom who came up with the idea. It works very well.
Biden says fire a blast into the air with your 12 gauge.
I haze coyotes with my rifle and then we hang the carcass on the barb wire fence as a warning to the others. I don’t know if that last part works or not but people around here say it does so we do it.
“Yell and wave your arms, use noisemakers such as whistles, air horns, bells, soda cans filled with pennies or dead batteries, or bang pots and pans together, the society advises in its “Coyote Hazing Guidelines.” All these methods are called hazing. “........
IMO.........There are a few permanent ways to be rid of coyotes, poison, bullets (includes shotgun pellets) and arrows, all others a just “temporary” measures.

“The advice involves making as much noise and commotion as possible.”
BANG! is the one “loud noise” they omitted...
If it doesn't and starts coming towards you, is it ok to try and run away then? Climbing a tree might work.......
