Mute Swan Decoy

Comments about Mute Swan Decoy:

I have a 3/4 acre pond with the same common goose problems that most pond owners have. I bought the Swan decoy and augmented with a "dead" goose decoy. I am sitting here watching the geese swim 'round and 'round my pond looking for a good place to nest. While I have tried many humane remedies to keep these fecal beasts away from crapping up my entire lawn, I am convinced the only effective method is flying lead.

I have horses and 2 two-acre fields. There is a 5 acre pond nearby and I have a small one. I move the swans around every day in one field. Worked for the first few days. Yesterday I had to chase geese out. Even though I move the decoys, I think the geese figure it out when they don't hear any noise or see the flapping wings. But they are pretty in the field or pond none the less. Just have to keep them away from the horses or they will permanently be in pieces. The would make good horse toys for about a minute so they are only in one field and I only have 2 swans. Too expensive for a piece of molded painted plastic. Not sure how effective they wiill be in the long run. Jury still out on that.

DETERS GEESE. I HAVE 2 AND THEY WORK GREAT. THIS NEW ONE IS FOR MY SON=IN=LAW'S LAKE. HE'S GETTING IT FOR CHRISTMAS.

I thought the swan would be a good idea to inhibit the proliferation of geese on our property. From the first moment we put the swan out, the geese came right up to it as though it was their new good friend.
We're very sorry it wasn't successful.

Cute, easy to use - and did not scare my geese. Tightly stringing fishing line across the lawn worked.
