With the recent snows, I discovered that I have Coyotes making regular trips through my property and into bordering woods.  Some of my neighbors have spotted two together, so I was wondering what would be the best way to get rid of them.
I do have a 22 rifle, but am in a thick residential area, and i'm within earshot of the Police station   

  .   I have a bow, but don't think I have a chance at night with it - when they seem to be out moving around.
Do I try to poison, - live trap + relocate, - call an exterminator 

 . 
I'd like to get rid of them,  there's some little kids (elementary school also)  and pets all around.  
Thanks in advance for your advice.
Happy + healthy 2003 to all.
