No worries with the troll stuff. Good question as it IS the reason for the geese. Geese love freshly mown healthy grass. Our lawn is exactly what they love. As far as removing the lawn. NEVER! The family business is landscaping so there's kind of an obsession to keep the place 'landscaped'. Keeping a lawn plush and green through the year using only the fertilizer allowed is very difficult unless you put a lot of time into it. That being said, I have no room to complain about the geese. We set the table. It's mostly our fault they come. They don't hurt anybody, they just crap all over my lawn and walkways. I will never hurt them but I will harass them and try to keep them away.
