Default Dealing with fleas on Coyotes
What are you guys doing to keep fleas from getting in the house! Skinned a few this winter and must have brought fleas inside on my wool pants! Got bit up in my sleep! Tried using some raid on my pant legs and left them in the garage.

As soon as I bring them in the garage to hang they get sprayed with raid. Foxes are herendous for fleas, coyotes are hit and.miss but they both get sprayed.

Toss in a garbage bag, spray raid in, tie end off and wait 8hrs ish to get at it.

Usually sprayed them at night for morning skinning etc.

This! Tried this method at Joey's suggestion (JB taxidermy) and it worked well.

LOL! Same. Unfortunately mine is not taking much in over the past year or two. At least not unless they're exceptional specimens...
