If they are Canadian Geese they are protected by the US Fish and
Wildlife Service under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918. They cannot
be killed, hunted, possessed, purchased or exported.
The only way to get rid of them is by discouragement. Remove their food
source, nesting or eggs, or frighten them away.


Taking the eggs is considered taking a baby goose and violates the treaty.
Disturbing the nest so the eggs are abandoned by the parents also harms a
baby goose.
