Do They Work?
This idea of using lasers for bird repellent came about several years ago when people were controlling a different animal. More than likely, the bird that they were after was a city dwelling feathered friend that inhabited warehouses and many inside areas. However, the goose does not do such things. I have seen many of these devices, but the majority of them are meant to be used inside a warehouse or large building. Users just put them out on the ground in the night and turn them on. The boxes send out an erratic display of lasers in many directions.
I have never used these for geese, but that isn’t to say that they would not work. I use more of a conventional approach to this problem. I use more traditional laser pointers and I can just point and click. I basically sit out on a warm summer night and have fun scaring the geese away while sitting on the porch sipping on a cold one. It’s a lot of fun and works as well. I have written about other forms of goose deterrent strategies on this blog, but have never written about the use of these. I will tell you that goose lasers work without a doubt. This should not really be a surprise to many of you. If you ponder about the whole situation, it all makes sense. I point the laser at them until they become aware of it and fly off. Many times they just get made because they cannot sleep, but other times it works within minutes.
After one of the birds flies off, it is like a domino effect. One goose will take off making a squawking noise that alarms the others. When they hear this distress call, the others do the same and I have a goose free pond.
