PHBG doesn't charge for its events. Whether you're a seasoned farmer or the proud new owner of a lifestyle block, come along for updates and control information on the pests in your patch.
Are you interested in using 1080 products to control vertebrate pests on your property?
A registered pesticide permit (RPP) authorises landholders on 20 hectares or more to use 1080 for the control of foxes, feral pigs and rabbits. Obtaining an RPP can take a little bit of effort, but permits are generally issued for 3-5 years and can be renewed easily after that.
Between September 21-25, you can make an in-person appointment with Lacey, our Feral Animal Program Officer, to receive one-on-one support to complete your RPP application.
Do you have weeds you're not sure how to treat? Or are you unsure if what you're looking at is even a weed?
Come along to a weed identification event in November, where we will look at your photos or samples and help you identify plants and discuss the best treatment for weeds on your property.
Details TBC.
