Default How to get rid of geese

Eliminate their food source. Maybe an application of a broadleaf weed
killer will work. Bonide makes a good one.

Cooking a goose is not recommended. We did this for Christmas about 10
years ago. Goose is *very* fatty and really cruds up the oven. Eating
the fat will provide lots of energy if you are out working in the
fields, but today that is not the case.

The family of a friend has a tiny (2 1/2 small rooms) house on a river
that feeds the Chesapeake Bay. They've had this for 40 years but
starting last year, geese started hanging out there.

Now it is worse, with poop all over the grass and the steps.

Any way to get rid of geese?


A dog works well. Or shoot them. Unlike woodchuck, smoked goose is
considered by yuppies (I was once a yuppy) to be a delicacy.
