Are You Using the Right Goose Repellent?

Are You Using the Right Goose Repellent?

Posted on June 22, 2014 by Alex Kecskes in Goose Control

Got geese eating your lawn, nipping at your ripening fruits, or terrorizing your pets? Can't take the aroma of goose droppings all over your property? Maybe you're not using the right goose repellent. Let's face it: those rubber snakes or floating plastic alligators won't do the job. And because geese are protected by strict laws that fine you for even moving their eggs, poisons and pellet guns are completely out of the question. For more professional strategies on handling these stubborn birds, be sure to read our guides on Canadian geese repellents that keep them away and discover the bird repellent geese would tell you to use if they could talk.

You need some professional advice from the goose control pros at Bird B Gone.

Migrate Goose Repellent: Geese Hate It

If geese are feasting on your lawn, it's time you looked into Bird B Gone's Migrate Goose Repellent. You apply this non-toxic liquid to your grass with a standard garden sprayer. The result: after one bite, geese will gag on your lawn. The active ingredient, Methyl Anthranilate (MA), irritates a goose's trigeminal nerves and mucous membranes. Not to worry, Migrate's MA is a non-lethal grape extract regulated by the EPA, so it won't harm geese, people, or pets. Better still, it stays put—rain or sprinklers won't easily wash it off, and since it is non-toxic, run-off will not contaminate the environment.

Bird Foggers: The Repellent for a Gaggle of Geese

If you waited too long and brazen geese have begun gathering in large flocks, you need to pull out all the stops and get Bird B Gone's Bird Fogger. It scatters geese quickly and effectively. The easy-to-use fogger disperses the same food-grade methyl anthranilate used on lawns. As an added benefit, bird foggers will not only scatter geese but also gulls, mallards, pigeons, starlings, blackbirds, and cowbirds. For optimum results, fogging agents should be used during early morning hours or late evening when geese are gathered in a single area.

Canadian Geese Decoys: The Repellent They Fear

While geese may no longer be frightened by humans, they have a deathly fear of coyotes. Which is why realistic-looking Coyote Decoys are so effective. Ideal for use in yards, docks, and pool areas, each decoy is fabricated from weather-resistant, UV-resistant durable plastic. All you have to do is move the decoys around from time to time to prevent geese from getting used to them. Each decoy pack comes with two coyote decoys, four metal rods, and four brackets for upright installation.
