 GEESE

Couple of ideas:

1) I have seen people hire trained dogs, I believe border collies or other such sheep shepherding dogs to chase them around.

2)Someone told me they heard that growing tall vegetation or other obstruction around the edges of ponds and lakes discouraged them from using the pond or lake as it was hard for them to get on land. Don't have any evidence this works.

3)For Vultures hanging them in effigy (by their feet) where you don't want them is supposed to be very effective, might work for geese, don't know.

4) For grazing deer we used a photo sensitive cell to turn on a sprinkler, to startle them, some permutation of this might work, maybe with a sound they are afraid of. Though they seem to be the most arrogant birds I have ever seem, strutting across highways without a care in the world.

Our golf pro Murf will probably have some real life ideas.

Hey Murf maybe that is what I should do when I get out of this computer racket? What is the pay, and how often do you get called back?
