Aggressive, non-native Egyptian geese foul the turf, dive-bomb people during nesting, and overpopulate fast on Palm Beach County communities and courses. We remove the flock and manage the nests and eggs so it doesn't just rebuild — residential, HOA, and golf-course work, documented for the board.

One pair is a nuisance. A resident flock is a problem.
Egyptian geese don't just wander through — they settle on golf courses, community lakes, retention ponds, lawns, and courtyards and dig in. Here's what that actually costs a property once they do.
Aggression during nesting
Once a pair claims a spot they turn mean. Egyptian geese chase people, kids, and dogs off the lawn and dive-bomb anyone who gets near a nest — a real problem on a shared walkway or a family courtyard.
Lawns & greens fouled
A flock leaves a startling amount of droppings across turf, putting greens, pool decks, and sidewalks. It's a mess, a slip hazard, and a water-quality and aesthetics headache around community lakes.
Rooftop & ledge nesting
Unlike most waterfowl, these birds nest up high — on flat rooftops, parapet ledges, balcony planters, and heavy landscaping — which makes the nest hard to reach and the defending adults harder to avoid.
Pool deck & courtyard mess
Retention ponds and courtyard fountains pull them right up to the building. The deck, the entry, and the walkways take the brunt of it, and residents stop using the space.
They overpopulate fast
A single pair becomes a resident flock in a couple of seasons. Left alone, the numbers — and the droppings and the territorial behavior — only climb from one nesting cycle to the next.
Why Egyptian geese can be removed when native birds can't.
This trips a lot of people up, so here's the short version. Native geese and ducks in Florida carry strong federal protection — you generally can't remove them or touch a nest. Egyptian geese are the exception, and the reason is simple: they aren't native. They're an African species that got loose here and became established across South Florida, so they don't get the same protection a native migratory bird does.
That non-native status is exactly what makes removal and nest-and-egg management possible — all handled under the applicable state and federal rules for non-native birds. We stay inside those rules and keep the work documented, and if a particular property or situation needs a closer look before we act, we'll say so plainly rather than guess.
The practical upside for you: because the nests and eggs can be managed, we can actually stop the flock from rebuilding — instead of clearing the adults and watching the next clutch reset the whole problem a few weeks later.
Clear the flock, then stop it rebuilding.
Removing the adults you can see is the easy half. The nests, the eggs, and the reasons the birds chose the property in the first place are what decide whether they come back — so we work all of it.
- 1
Assess the property & flock
A free walk of the lawns, ponds, greens, courtyards, and rooflines to count the birds, find the nests, and see what's drawing them in. The plan is only as good as that read.
- 2
Removal
We remove the resident geese, handled under the applicable state and federal rules for non-native birds — calmly and without turning a courtyard or a fairway into a scene.
- 3
Nest & egg management
We locate and manage the nests and eggs, including the rooftop and ledge sites, so a cleared property doesn't just refill from the next clutch a few weeks later.
- 4
Deterrence & feeding guidance
We flag what's making the property attractive — open feeding, unguarded pond banks, easy nesting ledges — and give landscaping and habitat guidance so the birds have less reason to stay.
- 5
Reporting
You get a written record of what was removed and managed — the documentation an HOA board or golf-course superintendent can file and hand to residents or members.
Clean work, and a paper trail the board can file.
On an HOA courtyard or a golf course, how the work looks matters almost as much as the result. We handle the birds calmly and correctly under the applicable rules for non-native species — no poisons, no spectacle near homes, pools, or fairways — and we write down what we did.

Egyptian geese removal across Palm Beach County.
We're based in Lake Worth and cover the county's golf communities, gated neighborhoods, and waterfront HOAs end to end — the retention lakes out west, the courtyards and pool decks, and the fairway ponds. Pick your city for the local read.
Custom quote, free assessment first.
Egyptian geese work is priced to the property, because the jobs are genuinely different — a single aggressive pair on a courtyard is nothing like a golf course with birds on every pond and nests on the clubhouse roof. So the number is a custom quote, and the assessment that gets you that number is free: we walk the property, count the flock, find the nests, and put a firm price in writing before any work starts.
What the assessment covers
- A walk of the lawns, ponds, greens, courtyards, and rooflines to count birds and find nests.
- An honest read on the flock size and how established it is on the property.
- A plan for removal plus nest and egg management, with the reporting a board or superintendent needs.
- A firm, written price — nothing you can't cancel and no surprise add-ons.
What moves the price
Mostly the size of the flock, how many nests there are and where they sit — rooftop and ledge nests take more work than a pond-bank clutch — and whether it's a one-off courtyard pair or a course-wide program that needs revisiting through the nesting season. We'll tell you which one you actually have and price it straight.
Homes, HOAs & golf courses
We work single-family lawns and courtyards, HOA common areas and community lakes, and golf-course greens and ponds across Palm Beach County — from a single pair in Wellington to a course with birds on every hole. If it's a different bird making the mess, our Muscovy duck removal and broader wildlife removal cover the rest. Not sure where to start? Get in touch and we'll walk it.

Egyptian geese questions.
Geese taking over the grounds?
Call or text Nick — he'll walk the property and tell you what removal and nest management it takes.
Call (561) 735-1975Is it legal to remove Egyptian geese in Florida?
In most cases yes, because Egyptian geese are a non-native, invasive species rather than a protected native bird. That's the key difference — native geese and ducks carry strong federal protection, while non-native Egyptian geese are handled under the applicable state and federal rules for non-native birds. We keep every removal inside those rules and document the work; if a specific situation needs a closer look, we'll tell you straight before we do anything.
Why are Egyptian geese so aggressive?
They're intensely territorial, especially once a pair is nesting. A defending goose will chase people, kids, and pets off a lawn and dive-bomb anyone who gets near the nest — and because they'll nest on rooftops, ledges, and planters, you can end up walking right under one without realizing it. That behavior is exactly why a courtyard, pool deck, or shared walkway with a resident pair becomes a place residents avoid.
Do you handle golf courses and HOAs, not just single homes?
Yes — communities and courses are the core of this work. We run removal and nest management across HOA common areas, community lakes and retention ponds, courtyards, and golf-course greens and fairways, and we scale the plan to the acreage. Boards and superintendents get written reporting they can file and show to residents or members.
Is your Egyptian geese removal humane?
Yes. We handle the birds calmly and correctly under the applicable rules for non-native species — no poisons, no theatrics near homes, pools, or fairways. The goal is to resolve the problem cleanly on residential, HOA, and golf-course properties, not to create a scene, and we keep the whole thing documented.
What about the nests and eggs?
Managing the nests and eggs is the part that actually holds. Remove the adult birds and skip the nests and you'll be right back at it after the next clutch hatches — often from a rooftop or ledge you can't easily reach. We locate and manage nests and eggs under the applicable rules for non-native birds so the flock stops rebuilding on the property.
How is Egyptian geese removal priced?
It's a custom quote, because a single courtyard pair and a golf course with birds on every pond are very different jobs. The assessment is free: we walk the property, count the flock, find the nests, and put a firm number in writing before any work starts — no guessing and nothing you can't cancel.
