Canada geese are one of the most readily recognized birds in the United States, and they are enjoyed by birdwatchers, sportsmen, outdoor enthusiasts and citizens. However, in some areas such as recreational lake environments, Canada geese can damage property, pose disease threats, and present public safety problems. Feeding them only incentivizes them to loiter and increase any unwanted effects for you and your neighbors (See article on Swimmer’s Itch). The attached documents can help you understand the issues, provide guidance on modifying your property to be less ‘goose friendly’ and also provide additional remedies for alleviating waterfowl issues.
