Predator Removal in Carrollton, GA

Carrollton's rural Carroll County surroundings support healthy coyote, fox, and occasional bobcat populations. Properties with livestock, poultry, and small pets are at risk, especially along the rural corridors outside city limits.

Coyotes, bobcats, and foxes have become increasingly common across Metro Atlanta — and not just in rural areas. We get calls from subdivisions in Kennesaw, Roswell, and Peachtree City from homeowners who've lost outdoor cats, found their chicken coop raided, or are hearing coyotes howling uncomfortably close to their homes at night. Urban and suburban sprawl in Georgia has pushed predators into neighborhoods, and they've adapted remarkably well. A coyote in your neighborhood isn't passing through — it lives there.

The most common scenario we deal with is coyotes targeting pets and backyard livestock. If you have outdoor cats, small dogs, or backyard chickens, coyotes are a real and persistent threat. We worked with a family in Paulding County who lost three cats in two months before realizing coyotes were the cause. They had a pair of coyotes denning under their back deck — less than 50 feet from the house. Bobcats are less common but present, particularly in areas bordering wooded land or greenspace. Foxes tend to be less aggressive but will still raid chicken coops and den under decks and sheds.

Predator management requires a different skill set than typical wildlife removal. These animals are intelligent, cautious, and territorial. Trapping takes experience, patience, and an understanding of predator behavior. We also address the attractants that brought them to your property in the first place — unsecured food sources, accessible shelter under structures, and unprotected livestock. Without addressing the root cause, new predators will move into the vacated territory within weeks.
