Geese police operates a humane, environmentally safe Canada Goose control company using highly trained Registered Border Collies. The geese are never harmed - just convinced that there is a predator present and to move on to a more comfortable location. Residents may not be aware that there is a way to control Canadian geese. Concerns regarding geese include damage to the turf, the negative impact on the water quality in lakes and most importantly the human health issues geese present. Research has shown that the excrement of geese contains a wide variety of pathogens capable of infecting humans. *(see attached document on Public Health Issues).
Each goose eats 3-4 pounds of grass per day and deposits 1.5 pounds of feces per day.
The techniques that they utilize are approved by the following organizations:
- Georgia Department of Natural Resources
- USDA Wildlife Services
- U S Fish and Wildlife Services
-

The most effective way to scare geese away is with trained geese herding dogs. Herding dogs convince geese they are not safe from predators. This should only be done by specially trained dogs working with a handler. Dogs handled properly put geese in flight and the geese leave an area entirely
