Other planned events: Notice of 1080 ground baiting program
NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) is conducting a ground baiting program from 14 September 2026 to 29 September 2026. The operation will use 1080 (sodium fluoroacetate) grain for the control of feral pigs and 1080 meat baits for wild dogs and foxes.
The program will take place in Terry Hie Hie AA and Irrigappa as weather and seasonal conditions allow. Australian wildlife has a naturally high tolerance to 1080 and will not be negatively impacted.
The program is designed to minimise the impact of feral pigs, wild dogs and foxes on native vegetation, wildlife and neighbouring enterprises.
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), must be restrained or muzzled in the vicinity and must not enter the baiting location nor be allowed to consume poisoned animals. If you suspect your dog or another animal has been exposed to poison, seek immediate veterinary assistance.
Please contact the local Barwon NPWS area office for more information on 6792 7300 or npws.barwon@environment.nsw.gov.au
