<li><textprimary><strong>Mow less frequently:</strong></textprimary>Geese prefer to eat the shorter, younger shoots of turf grass. Reducing mowing saves maintenance budget, and on [[vegetation filter strips]] and in [[enhanced grass swales]] the roughness (Manning's 'n') is increased. Increased roughness slows flow, allowing more water to infiltrate into the soil. </li>

<li><textprimary><strong>Bird deterrent tape:</strong></textprimary>Geese are slightly discouraged by shiny/flickering/reflective movement. Foil tape or flags are available for this purpose.  This can be a useful strategy on recently seeded areas or on green roofs in the late winter at the start of nesting season.
