Professional Commercial Goose Control Services

Canadian geese can cause significant issues for business operators, especially for facility operators located close to bodies of water. These pest birds often return to the same areas every year during the warmer months to nest and raise their young.

Removing geese can be challenging because these birds are federally protected under the Migratory Birds Convention Act. To ensure your business is professionally protected against Canadian geese, your local Lifetime Pest Control Pro will use industry leading expertise and professional goose removal solutions. All goose removal solutions are implemented in accordance with the migratory bird act and other federal, provincial and local legislation.

How Canadian Geese Can Cause Problems For Your Business

If Canadian geese have moved onto your facility grounds, you have likely noticed the negative impact these pest birds can have on your commercial property. The longer these geese roost, the worse the issue can become. Here are a few of the ways Canadian geese can have an impact on your business.

Damage To Lawns And Plants

Canadian geese are heavy grazers, feeding on grass, plants, and crops. Their constant eating can leave lawns and gardens full of bare spots and can cause damage to parks, golf courses and agricultural fields, resulting in stunted growth and lower crop yields.

Mess From Droppings

Canadian goose droppings are more than just a nuisance. The droppings can create unpleasant odors and even disrupt soil health by throwing off the balance of nutrients. A buildup of goose waste can make outdoor spaces unsanitary and unpleasant to use.

Health Hazard

Goose droppings can pose a serious health risk to your staff and customers. Though humans very rarely contract diseases from them, the droppings may potentially carry several pathogens such as salmonella, E. coli, Cryptosporidium and many others. Goose droppings can also be a slip/fall hazard because fresh droppings can make surfaces slippery.

Property Damage

Like other pest birds, the droppings of Canada geese can cause physical damage to be buildings, the uric acid in the droppings can erode surfaces and structures, build-up of droppings can clog gutters and drains, which can lead to costly repairs.

Aggressive Behavior

Canadian geese can become territorial, especially during nesting season. To defend their nests, Canadian geese may hiss, chase or even attack people or pets if they feel their nests or young are threatened.

Noise Nuisance

When in large numbers the vocalization of Canada geese can be loud, annoying and unpleasant. These sounds may include clucking, cackling and honking used for social communication and bonding.
