Geese – Go Away!

Q: We have a gaggle of geese that have begun spending the day in our front yard. We have no pond or water nearby. I do see them eating the grass. Can we treat the grass so they will not return?

A: Methyl anthranilate goose repellent is sold online under several brand names. When sprayed on grass, geese grazing there look as if they ate a green persimmon. I have several other ways to make geese go away, including trained dogs and laser hazing, at http://www.walterreeves.com/gardening-q-and-a/geese-control/.
