Other planned events: Notice of 1080 ongoing program in Nattai NP
NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) is conducting an ongoing ground baiting program from Tuesday 10th March 2026 to Monday 14th September 2026. The operation will use a Felixer containing 1080 (sodium fluoroacetate) poison for the control of feral cats, and approved meat baits, meat bait products, and Canid Pest Ejectors (CPE) for the control of foxes and wild dogs.
