Expert Coyote Removal in Michigan
Coyotes are highly adaptable predators that have increasingly moved into Michigan's urban and suburban neighborhoods. When natural prey is scarce, they will scavenge near homes, posing a direct threat to household pets, small livestock, and your peace of mind.
Our Trapping Solutions
Coyotes are notoriously intelligent and "trap-shy," requiring professional expertise to catch. We solve your coyote problem using proven strategies:
Targeted Trapping- Safe, effective use of live, foothold, and collarum traps based on your terrain.
Professional Luring- Strategic application of specialized baits and lures to outsmart wary animals.
Property Protection- We remove the immediate threat and help you deter future packs.

Signs You Have a Coyote Problem
Homeowners usually realize they have a coyote issue in one of two ways: hearing wild canines howling at night, or finding animal remainsโlike rabbit bones, squirrel skeletons, or scattered chicken feathersโaround their property. If you notice these signs, itโs time to take action.
Why Coyote Removal is Not a DIY Job
You can't just go to your local hardware store and buy a standard trap to catch a coyote. These are highly intelligent, wary predators. Simply setting a cage near a den rarely works, as coyotes are notoriously "trap-shy." Effective and safe removal requires professional equipment and a deep understanding of coyote behavior.
Our Proven Removal Process
We use safe, strategic methods tailored to the unique layout of your property:
Specialized Trapping- We primarily use expert-set foothold traps (the most effective underground method) and carefully camouflaged live traps.
Advanced Luring & Scent Control- Coyotes have an incredible sense of smell. We utilize professional scent-maskers, specific gland lures, and natural baits to successfully outsmart them.
Large Property Management- For expansive areas like farms, ranches, or golf courses, targeted hunting may be the most efficient method for population control.
Den Destruction- Once the coyotes are removed, the job isn't done. We backfill or permanently seal the empty den so that new coyotes or foxes can't move in and start the cycle over.
Transparent Coyote Removal Pricing
Professional trapping is the most effective method for eliminating coyotes from your property. We keep our pricing structure straightforward and competitive, offering two flexible options to fit your situation:
Option 1- The All-Inclusive Flat Rate (Our Way)
Our customers prefer this option because there are no surprisesโyou know exactly what the job will cost from day one. The average flat-rate cost is approximately $995 (prices may vary slightly based on the specific situation).
Complete Setup- A thorough property survey, inspection, and strategic trap placement.
30-Day Trapping Guarantee- We will trap and remove coyotes from your property at no additional cost for a full 30 days.
Free Resets- If we resolve the issue early, we remove the traps. If coyote activity returns within the 30-day window, we will return to reset the traps for free.
Option 2- Setup Fee + Per-Animal Rate
For certain situations, we offer a traditional pay-per-catch pricing model.
Setup Fee- Typically ranges from $150 to $200 for the initial inspection and trap placement.
Per-Animal Fee- $60 to $100 for every coyote successfully trapped and removed.
Please note: Additional trip charges may apply depending on your property's location and the difficulty of the trap placement.
(Note: Long-term preventative services, such as screening off decks or filling in dens to prevent future wildlife from moving in, are available for an additional charge.)
Our Service Policy
At Michigan Wildlife Solutions, our priority is providing humane, effective, and timely service. To do this, we must sometimes make tough choices about the jobs we accept.
- High-Demand Seasons- During our busiest times, such as peak exclusion seasons, we may not be able to take on new animal trapping jobs to ensure we can properly serve our current clients.
- Availability and Staffing- Wildlife issues don't follow a 9-to-5 schedule. Effective, humane removal requires a full-time commitment, which is why we're dedicated to being available seven days a week. Like many businesses, our ability to respond quickly can be impacted by staffing shortages.
- Legal Compliance- We strictly follow all laws and regulations set by the Department of Natural Resources (DNR).
Feel free to reach out to us any day of the week to check on our availability in your area.
