What can Gate of Heaven do about the mess the geese leave behind?
Canadian geese are a protected species. We contract with a geese control expert who helps us keep their numbers to a minimum. Geese droppings are a nuisance, but are normal in the natural setting we have created at Gate of Heaven Cemetery. They will eventually wash into the soil with a moderate to heavy rain and become fertilizer.
