Away With Geese Land Unit

Product #:  AWGLAND001
Brand:  Away With Geese
Description: 

The Problem:
Canada Geese settle on golf courses, private ponds, and commercial retention ponds and remain only to create a nuisance. Each goose drops two to four pounds of excrement daily and creates tremendous noise.

The Solution:
The AwayWithGeese system is a new and innovative way to rid your property of nuisance geese without the use of harsh chemicals, dogs, reflectors, noise making devices or other concoctions. AwayWithGeese is self-contained, automatic and guaranteed to get rid of geese or your money back.

Background on Geese
The scientific name for Canada Geese is Branta canadensis. The birds often migrate in the fall, but isolated populations may reside year round.  Nesting begins in March and April, in the riparian zone near a waterbody.
 
One goose can consume up to four pounds of grass per day, producing about three pounds of fecal matter per day.  This can contribute to excessive amounts of nutrient loading because their feces contain 76% carbon, 4.4% nitrogen, and 1.3% phosphorus.  These nutrients can cause harmful algal blooms in lakes from runoff.  To make matters worse Cryptosporidium parvum, a protozoan linked to the feces of animals has caused over 400,000 sicknesses and a recorded six deaths (Worsnop, 1994).  Wild ducks, geese, and shorebirds are the natural reservoir for influenza A virus according to an article published by the Center for Disease Control.The Land based unit eliminates night and early AM congregating by disturbing the geese just enough to encourage them to move to another location.


1. Eliminates night and early AM congregating by disturbing the geese just enough to encourage them to move to another location

4. Stainless steel lanyard and mounting hardware
5. Solar powered, Maintenance free, Environmentally safe
6. Effective coverage up to 75 yards from placement
 
Environmentally Safe, Low Maintenance
The success of the product is based around a simple concept. At night, geese sleep in or near water areas where they feel secure from their predators (dogs, fox and coyotes). Placing an AwayWithGeese unit into the secure areas simulates the eye reflection of these predators and disrupts the geese's ability to sleep. The geese no longer consider the area "safe" and will simply move to another suitable area within a few days.

Geese are also lazy. They tend to stay close to their secure areas during daylight hours in order to minimize the distance they travel each day. AwayWithGeese is powerful enough to coax the geese into finding a different nighttime home far enough away to discourage daily commutes back to your lawn.

The unit automatically operates at night and produces an amber 360 degree beam of light directed at goose eye-level, then recharges itself during the day.

The light is unobtrusive to people. In fact, when seen at night, it provides a sense of satisfaction to human observers as it continues its vigil to encourage the geese to move on along with their mess.
