Any type of food source, including garbage bins and outdoor bird feeders, should be removed. Water sources outside should also be removed.<\/p>\n<p>Pets should also not be fed outside, and yards should be maintained to reduce the amount of small animals that coyotes prey on. In addition, motion lights or radios can discourage <a href=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/coyote-attacks-bergen-county-nj-2025\/\">coyotes<\/a> and keep them away from buildings.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong>See More:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/bergen-county-cooling-centers-nj\/\">Where to Find Cooling Centers in Bergen County<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<h2>What to Do If You See a Coyote<\/h2>\n<p>If a person comes in contact with a coyote, they should try to keep it away by making loud noises, throwing rocks, or spraying them with a hose.
