• Service Burlington, Sims Square, 390 Brant St., third floor
• Nelson Recreation Centre, 4235 New St.
• Burlington Public Library Branches
  • Aldershot Branch, 550 Plains Rd. E.
  • Alton Branch, 3040 Tim Dobbie Dr.

  • Kilbride Branch, 6611 Panton St.
  • New Appleby Branch, 676 Appleby Line
  • Tansley Woods Branch, 1996 Itabashi Way

Consistent hazing will scare off coyotes by re-instilling their fear of humans. Any time you see a coyote in a residential area, use hazing techniques to scare it away, such as:

• Spraying the coyote with water from a garden hose or a water gun filled with vinegar
• Throwing small rocks, large sticks, cans or rubber balls near the coyote
• Using whistles,...
