Resident concern has been raised about the goose population in Minerva Park.
The Ohio Department of Natural Resources has some helpful information online about dealing with nuissance geese.
Nuisance Species
Harassment Techniques & Timeline
One primary message from ODNR related to goose populations is not to feed the geese. When geese become accustomed to being fed by humans not only do they lose their fear of humans and become more of a threat to us, they lack proper nutrition by supplementing their natural food source for carbohydrates.
If you personally have had a conflict with the Canadian Geese in Ohio you can make a conflict report online with ODNR.
The telephone number for ODNR Division of Wildlife in our district is 614-644-3925.
