A woman in Escondido says coyotes have recently eaten or mauled five of her pets.

Neighbors are now looking for  a solution to get rid of them.

A spokesperson for the Department of Fish and Wildlife says when coyotes become a nuisance, it's the responsibility of homeowners to take action.

Residents can hire a tracker who is licensed to kill them.
