Should we allow airports to clear away ducks and geese anyway possible?
What ever it takes (except torturing them with the waterboard treatment), even death. Or are these birds more important than humane lives and the loss of billions of dollars.

well some birds or ducks or geese caused the flight in New York to land (crash) into the lake. what do you think....I don't want them to be harmed, but they harm us...not that they know it, but then they kill themselves too. I think it is funny how we clean up after our dogs.( by law) but the geese mess up all the sidewalks! lol I think they need to be controled somehow. All we keep doing is making it easier for them to live anywhere. The water retention ponds for nature. I only see hundreds of geese. fish in the water brought by the eggs on the geese and duck feathers. I don't know if this is what you were looking for, but there it is! :)

I think they already do try that, but you know, ducks and geese fly, so no one can really ever keep them out of an area for long. They are shooed away and they fly back or maybe are just flying through and get caught up in the flight path. Not much can permanently be done for this.

No. Most of the birds sucked in to jet engines are no where near airports. You would have to eliminate just about every species of bird that migrates. Very impractical. It has nothing to do with valuing life.
More people die on American highways every year than have been killed over the last 20 years where airplanes crashed due to bird effects.
