Closed parks: Park Closed for Aerial Pest Animal Control Operation

AERIAL PEST ANIMAL CONTROL OPERATION

The National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) will be conducting an aerial shooting program targeting vertebrate pest animals such as feral goats, pigs and deer.

The program is scheduled to occur during daylight hours and this reserve will be closed from 8:00am Wednesday 25th to 5:00pm Saturday 28th September 2024. 

Aerial shooting supplements other control measures which include trapping, ground shooting and baiting.

NPWS takes a strategic and integrated approach to pest management on lands we manage.

We aim to minimise the adverse impacts of pest animals on biodiversity, cultural values, neighbours and the community.

Only qualified and appropriately trained personnel will participate in this program.

If you have any questions regarding the aerial shooting program, please call our Bathurst office on (02) 6332 7640.

Other planned events: Alert Notice of use of Hoggone meSN Feral Pig Bait from September 2nd

Due to a large number of feral pigs causing impacts in the Reserve, and to meet NPWS's General Biosecurity Duty, (GBD), under the Biosecurity Act, NPWS will be using "Hoggone" bait material to control feral pigs.

NPWS pesticides trained staff, will be using a new control product, to control feral pig numbers, and lessen the impacts caused by feral pigs in Mount Canobolas State Conservation Area.

HOGGONE will be used on this Reserve, and the product is a peanut based product with Sodium nitrite as the poison.

This product is very effective on controlling feral pigs and when used carefully has few off-target impacts.

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. Pets and working dogs must not enter the baiting location. In the event of accidental poisoning seek immediate veterinary assistance.

NPWS staff will be monitoring the success of the program and have allowed a few weeks to undertake the program.

For more information on this project to control feral pigs, please contact the NPWS Central West Area office at Bathurst on 02 6332 7640 or email npws.centralwest@environment.nsw.gov.au
