Can the Commission come and remove this muscovy duck?
Muscovy ducks are a non-native duck, that may be a nuisance by reducing water quality, or dig nesting burrows in shrubbery. The Commission does not come and remove these. The best approach to them is to stop feeding them. Flock size may partially controlled, by removing some eggs from the nest, shaking them vigorously, and then returning them to the nest. Relocating and releasing non-native species like the muscovy is illegal. From the Wildlife Resources Handbook a one page fact sheet , is available, as well as a Guide to domestic ducks in urban areas .
