What we do:

  • Inspect water features, lawns, and pathways for signs of goose activity.
  • Discuss your goals for goose management.
  • Recommend a customized plan based on your property’s layout and goose behavior.

  • Dogs are directed to safely harass geese without making physical contact.
  • Their presence simulates a natural predator, encouraging geese to relocate.
  • Visits are conducted daily, Monday through Friday, to maintain consistent deterrence.

Why It’s Effective:

  • Non-lethal and environmentally friendly.
  • Proven to reduce goose populations over time when applied consistently.
