Coyote Fleas - 12/05/22 09:16 PM
What is everyone doing to deal with coyote fleas when you bring them home? Most of the coyotes I snare are frozen solid when I go check snares.
I bring them home and hang in the garage until they are thawed enough to skin. You'd think all the fleas or whatever would be dead or have left the coyote but it seems like once they start to warm up the little buggers come back to life.
If I shoot them, I usually put them in a garbage bag and fumigate with RAID and leave in the bag for about 15 minutes.
do I really have to fumigate every coyote I bring home? it seems like they should be free of pests after freezing solid.
Anyway....I'm rambling now. Im just curious what every one else sees.
