In reply to the discussion: For those that followed the entire saga of the raccoon bite [View all]herding cats
(20,047 posts)122. I just looked into buying some coyote urine as you recommended because I have a wildlife problem
There are no feed stores near me so I checked out Amazon as you recommended. After reading the reviews for one product called Deerbuster, which claims to be 100% pure coyote urine, I'm no more knowledgeable as to if it's effective. I am, however, highly entertained.
Here's a sampling of what I read there.
URINE, BUT NOT COYOTE URINE!
I bought a jug of Deerbusters Coyote Urine to beat the drug tests that my job had been making me take, but I was immediately let go.
The urine tested positive for both heroin and a methamphetamine, which I never use and don't think "coyotes" use either.
I wrote Deerbusters and Amazon, asking for an explanation and a refund, citing that, clearly, this is NOT coyote urine! Also, I demanded that Dearbusters fire the employees tasked with filling these jugs full of their pee, since they're obviously high off their rockers and don't deserve their jobs.
............
A classic vintage that sets the palette alight!
This is an oenophile's delight, a radiant gold, with a browning rim.
Clean, medium intensity, developed aromas of garbage, mushroom, ammonia, and game. Herby and savoury, slight oxidation.
Initial burst of sweet dark badger moves through all the savoury notes of the nose, more frarant herbs, firm tannins and a surprisingly juicy and complex finish.
Retains good acidity for its age, with no signs of tiredness yet.

This product is lacking
My main issue with this product stems from the taste. When I consume coyote urine, I expect that rich taste similar to the finest of champagnes. I was highly disappointed. The taste of this coyote urine can only be compared to the disgusting taste of wolf urine, which is better known by it's grocery store name, Keystone Light. This gallon of coyote urine hardly tasted like the real thing. I expect authenticity. Also, the size was rather small. My diet mandates that I consume at least 3 gallons of this "Nectar of the Gods" per day, because it is both great for my skin and cures my Alzheimer's. If you are looking for large quantities of the good stuff, look elsewhere!

First, I think it smells more like digo urine
First, I think this smells more like Dingo urine.
However... In order to get this onto an airplane with the 3oz limit, I tried to pour it into another small container. But, it spilled onto my baby who was crawling under my legs at the time, and she got eaten by a bear.
Unless there is a three ounce version of this product, I'm not carry it on an airplane.
I would have given it 5 stars, except that I had to remove one star for the bear accident.

Thanks for accidentally leading me to a good laugh.

It comes in plastic containers with large holes in the top, so you can shake it out

I've read some there in the past which lead me to believe they're written by professionals.

So glad you got that taken care of and you're all done. Stay well (and stay away from raccoons)!

I understand why you were reluctant to make a big deal out of the bites and go to the ER.
