Arlington recently hosted a talk about their Coyote problem and ways that homeowners can (and can't) deal with it. I found it helpful: https://www.facebook.com/arlingtonma/videos/568540324262609/
Unfortunately it's via FB, but I'll look to see if it's available in another format. The talk starts around 6 minutes in, so you'll most likely want to fast forward to that point!
