An Introduction To Geese Control

By Timothy West


There is various species of goose and all of these can cause problems for people. One of the main problems caused by geese is the mess that they make with droppings. If you have problems caused by geese you will probably want to explore the different options or geese control.

Many companies exist who can help with getting rid of pests such as birds. Homemade remedies are also an option when it comes to sorting out the problem and these could save you a lot of money.

If you have reached the point where you want to get rid of geese the first thing that you should do is to stop feeding the population in all locations. It is important that you do not feed these birds in public places, parks and on private property. Another thing that you need to do is to deal with the control of the geese before population becomes too big. Make your property as unappealing to geese as you possibly can as this will make their control a lot easier.

There is various methods of control that can be used to control the problem of geese and a lot of these methods are non-lethal. There is some companies that can use these methods to deal with the problem on your behalf. Regardless of where the problem is there are a lot of things that can be done as a way of dealing with the problem.

It is not a good idea to feed human food to any species of wildlife. Food that is consumed by humans is not good in the diet of a goose. Geese will rapidly become used to getting handouts from humans and they will become domesticated, which will attract more migrating or wild birds.

The population of geese can be controlled through the use of decoys. A collection of swan decoys can be useful when it comes to dealing with this problem. These decoys can prevent birds from nesting in an area. They tend to be aggressive when it comes to protecting their young which will deter other birds from nesting in this area. The bad thing about decoys is that they can be a bit of an eyesore, therefore, it is a good idea to only use them during the main migratory period.

Limit the access to water as this will reduce the number of birds by meaning that they are unable to get near the ponds or beaches. Several different methods can be used for this and one of the methods is to build a dock along the line of the water. The dock needs to be at a height which will be easy for the birds to get onto. Geese will be prevented from getting easy access to water if a bird fence is used.

Geese have a tendency to head for water when they feel threatened. Making water difficult to access will take away their safety and will mean that they are less likely to nest in the area.

There is a spray that you can get for the lawn and it contains an ingredient called Methyl anthanilate. This is a good grade substance that has been used for many years as a food flavouring and it is biodegradable. This substance will be broken down by the time that it enters into the water system.
