Other planned events: Notice of 1080 ground baiting program

NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) is conducting a ground baiting program from Tuesday 17 September 2024 to Friday 27 September 2024. The operation will use 1080 (sodium fluoroacetate) poison for the control of feral pigs.

The program will take place in Couradda and Moema National Parks.

The program is designed to minimise the damage to native habitat, impacts to surrounding neighbours and the degradation of soil.

Signs will be placed at the entry to the baiting location. Domestic pets are not permitted in NSW National Parks managed lands. Pets and working dogs may be affected (1080 is lethal to cats and dogs). Pets and working dogs must be restrained or muzzled in the vicinity and must not enter the baiting location. In the event of accidental poisoning seek immediate veterinary assistance.

Please contact the local Barwon NPWS area office for more information on 02 6792 7300.
