Hello All,

I have a potential account in Mass. They are a medical facility.

The problem turkey poop. The turkeys poop on the sidewalk and people carry the poop into the building onto their shoes.

This is a no no for a medical manufacturing plant.

What can I do to get rid of the turkeys remember this is Mass. and not New Hampshire.

Yes, I wish I could go onto the manufacturing campus with my semi auto 3 1/2 mag. but, I can't.

Thanks

Chuck

check with the D.N.R. see if you can use non lethal means like a cracker gun or maybe even good trained dog.

You would start by getting a permit here . I would just trap them myself release them out in the country . There must be a reason there drawn to the area so I would study why there there and might be able to solve the problem that way never need to touch a bird . Wouldn't be that hard to detour turkey from walking on a side walk using fishing line like used on geese and deer

An animal only does what he is successful at. There is a reason the turkeys are on the sidewalk and I suspect someone is feeding or a bird feeder. Take away that and maybe a little hazing will probably turn them back into wild turkeys, Talk to a few employees or watch security cameras and I think you will find your answer to the problem. The non offenders know who is helping the turkeys make the poop.

I have heard of turkey populations in urban areas of New England that were feral domestics. That is a game changer, talk to your DNR.

Hazing with a Laser Pointer might work.

The only thing I know of that works really well on turkeys is Thanksgiving.

There is this african smoke seasoning at Trader Joes...it is the bomb!
