Humane & Effective Geese Control Methods

At GEESE OFF!, we specialize in humane, eco-friendly, and effective methods for controlling and removing Canada geese from your property. Whether you’re dealing with a small residential issue or a larger commercial property overrun by geese, our expertly trained team is here to help. We understand the challenges posed by these invasive birds, and we use proven techniques to ensure your property stays safe and geese-free.

Our Humane Geese Control Process

We believe in using humane, non-lethal methods to manage and control geese populations. Our approach focuses on keeping both your property and the geese safe, while reducing the problems they cause. Here’s a detailed look at the methods we use:

Trained Border Collies: Natural, Humane Goose Deterrent

One of our primary methods of geese control is the use of trained Border Collies. These intelligent and highly trained dogs are experts at herding geese and convincing them to leave your property without harm. Border Collies have an instinctual ability to control geese in a way that does not injure them, making this method both effective and humane.

  • How It Works: Our Border Collies are trained to approach geese in a manner that encourages them to fly or move away from the area without causing stress or harm. This natural method is highly effective in reducing the geese population and preventing them from returning.

  • Why It Works: Geese are naturally intimidated by the presence of dogs, which triggers their flight response. With our skilled Border Collies, we can move the geese off your property quickly and safely.

Egg Addling: Preventing Overpopulation

Preventing the overpopulation of geese is crucial for long-term control. At GEESE OFF!, we practice egg addling, a humane method that prevents eggs from hatching, reducing the overall geese population.

  • How It Works: Our technicians carefully collect geese eggs from nests and either shake or oil them to prevent hatching. This method is non-lethal and does not harm the geese. By preventing eggs from hatching, we help stabilize the population of geese in the area.

  • Why It Works: By reducing the number of goslings that are born each year, we help maintain a manageable geese population. This is a long-term solution to prevent future geese problems and reduce the need for more aggressive control methods.

Habitat Modification: Making Your Property Less Attractive

We know that geese are drawn to certain environments, so modifying the landscape is a key part of our approach. Habitat modification is about altering the areas where geese are likely to congregate, making them less attractive to the birds.

  • How It Works: We recommend and implement changes such as planting non-edible grasses, installing fencing, or creating areas that are uncomfortable for geese to land in. By making your property less hospitable, we encourage geese to look for alternative locations to settle.

  • Why It Works: Geese prefer areas with open, grassy spaces near water. By removing these ideal conditions, we discourage geese from returning to your property.

Auditory & Visual Deterrents: Disrupting Geese Comfort Zones

In addition to the natural deterrent of our Border Collies, we use auditory and visual deterrents to disrupt geese comfort zones and prevent them from feeling safe on your property.

  • How It Works: We deploy sonic devices that emit sounds geese find unsettling or use visual deterrents such as reflective objects, balloons, or lights that create movement and discomfort. These tools help scare geese away from your property.

  • Why It Works: Geese are highly sensitive to changes in their environment, and disturbances in their comfort zones—whether auditory or visual—force them to look for safer spaces to settle.

Kayak & Boat Services for Water-Based Control

For properties near water, geese often settle along shorelines or float on ponds and lakes. We offer kayak and boat-based services to reach geese on the water and deter them from nesting or staying on your property.

  • How It Works: Our team uses boats or kayaks to navigate bodies of water and displace geese, making the area less attractive to them. This method is particularly effective for lakes, ponds, golf course water features, or any water-accessible properties.

  • Why It Works: By removing geese from their preferred water areas, we prevent them from nesting, feeding, or relaxing on your property.
