Coyote Control & Removal in Massachusetts
Coyotes live throughout Massachusetts, and most of the time they keep their distance. The calls come when one stops doing that: a coyote taking chickens or livestock, stalking pets in the yard, denning under a shed or deck, or acting bold around people. Those situations call for a professional — and in Massachusetts, coyote work is regulated work.
Michael Harvey is MassWildlife coyote-certified for Problem Animal Control coyote work, and Harvey's Animal Evictions handles coyote problems for homes, farms, and properties across eastern Massachusetts.
Signs a coyote has become a problem
• Livestock or poultry losses
• A coyote repeatedly in the yard during the day, or showing little fear of people
• Pets followed, chased, or taken
• Denning under a deck, shed, or outbuilding — especially in spring pup season
• Tracks, scat, and night-time yipping close to the house, night after night
How we help
Coyote work starts with an inspection: what's drawing the animal in, how it's getting access, and whether you're dealing with one bold coyote or a pattern. The plan can include:
• Assessment and attractant control — identifying the food, shelter, and access points keeping coyotes around, and closing them off
• Exclusion — fencing and barrier work for coops, pens, and yards
• Targeted removal — humane, lawful trapping and removal of problem animals by a certified PAC agent, when the situation calls for it
One honest note: coyotes can't simply be relocated — Massachusetts law doesn't allow it, and a moved coyote becomes someone else's problem or doesn't survive. What we can do is remove the specific problem animal and make your property a place coyotes learn to avoid.
For farms
We work with local farms on coyote pressure around livestock and poultry — assessment, exclusion, and removal where it's warranted. If coyotes are costing you animals, call us before the losses add up.
Book an inspection online — the inspection fee is confirmed at booking, and every quote follows an on-site inspection. We don't give estimates sight unseen.
