Rid Your Premises of Unwelcome Canada Geese by Broadcasting Their Own Distress Calls
Chicago, IL. GooseBuster is the first and only unit to use actual alert and alarm calls of Canada geese recorded in the wild. Geese recognize them and respond instinctively. 'Alert' signifies nervousness or concern about potential danger; 'Alarm' signifies immediate danger requiring instant evacuation, without bothering to identify the source. Calls differ in frequency, duration and intervals. Sound combinations, sequences and speaker
selection change randomly, causing geese to perceive multiple birds in motion in several locations. User can program interval between calls.
Dr. Philip Whitford, an Associate Professor of Biology, has been researching Canada goose behavior and vocal communication, and publishing and presenting his findings since 1979. He holds his Ph.D. in Biological Sciences in the realm of animal behavior, and his M.S. and B.S. in Wildlife Management. GooseBuster is proven effective in university-conducted field studies. Published results, "Efficacy of Recorded Alarm and Alert Calls
for Goose Dispersal", available upon request.
