Rochester is known for its scenic parks, peaceful neighborhoods, and beautiful waterfronts. But with these inviting outdoor spaces comes an unexpected challenge—Canada geese. While these birds may look harmless as they graze or waddle across open fields, they leave behind more than just footprints. Goose droppings can quickly cover walkways, lawns, and public areas, turning well-maintained spaces into messy, unhygienic zones.
If you’re a property owner, facilities manager, or simply someone who enjoys the outdoors, you’ve likely noticed how quickly this problem can grow. That’s where DoodyCalls of Rochester comes in. Our professional goose waste removal services are designed to keep your spaces clean, safe, and enjoyable for everyone.
The hidden dangers of goose poop
It’s easy to dismiss goose poop as just an eyesore, but the reality is far more concerning. Goose droppings carry bacteria such as E. coli and salmonella, as well as parasites like giardia. These can pose serious health risks to both people and pets, especially in areas where children play or where people walk barefoot in the grass.
Beyond the health concerns, goose droppings can create hazardous conditions. When it accumulates on sidewalks or near water features, it becomes slippery and unsafe. This can increase the risk of falls, especially for seniors or people with mobility issues. And let’s not forget the environmental impact—runoff from contaminated areas can pollute local streams, ponds, and lakes.

Your questions, answered
How often should I schedule goose poop removal?
The right frequency depends on your property’s layout and how attractive it is to geese. High-traffic areas like parks, golf courses, and schoolyards may need service once or twice a week. Less frequented spaces might get by with monthly visits. We’ll help you figure out what works best.
Are your cleaning methods safe for pets and kids?

Can goose droppings attract other animals or insects?
