I want to get rid of Canada Geese in a play area, will the geese fly in and fly out of the pond

Someone suggested putting a wire around my pond to prevent the Geese from entering and leaving the water. Will the fence work? Will the Geese ignore the fence and fly in and out of the pond or will they fly off and find a new pond? What do you think? Think like a Goose.

Hi

If your pond is large enough for them to land they will ignore your wire or fencing for sure!

Dont net over the pond as yoy will have injured and trapped birds who dont see it in time to avert the landing.

They are migrgating right now and ssuming you live in a cool climate they will be done soon. but if this is because you are in an end destination for them. then welllll

Now they dont like irratic moving things or loud noises

We have been able to tie plastic grocery bags to metal posts stuck in the ground before and they rattle in the wind and it can help discourage them.. Just be careful yuo dont get any blow off and get around agoose neck etc..

Also Foating a brightly colored rafts in the middle of your pond might work as well..

Not a solid wood one but an inflatable raft..big as you can get or a few small inflateable boats or smaller rafts. swim rings.. you take roap ( not string)and tie it around the entire raft tightly.. then tie it to a weight. can be an anchor or use milk jugs with water in them,, do not use other jugs that had things like antifreeze or other chemicals in them before. also glue the milk jug caps on if they are not screw ons to prevent them from coming off and being eaten by other birds like ducks or future geese. Or you can remove the caps right before you put the jug into the water ..long as the jug is full it will sink.
